    For the first clip, my best guess based on what I know of first language acquistion in children: When you asked about the ball, Bunny remembered that she had recently dreamt about playing ball in the living room. So, like a young child who hasn't yet developed the contextual skills and Theory of Mind needed for full fluent communication, she says "see ball here here", assuming that you will know about her dream. When you didnt understand, she frustratedly said "dream" to remind YOU of HER dream, the equivalent of, "The dream I had, Mom, remember?", and she got frustrated because she assumed you knew about her dream and were playing dumb for some reason.

      @@J_C95 At some point Bunny started to mention "Night Talk" or "Sleep Talk". I believe this is the first video about it(ua-cam.com/video/CFyuyoJbp08/v-deo.html, 0:50). It was hypothesized to be dream, so they woke up Bunny in the middle of sleep and asked about "What talk when sleep"(ua-cam.com/video/kQ2btFzDxPs/v-deo.html, 1:05). She replied it was about some "stranger animal". I believe they conditioned the "dream" button after that.

    How do you train on homonyms? In the first clip, Bunny pressed "here, here, here" when discussing playing with balls, and in a subsequent clip you ask her "What do you hear?". Are there two buttons one for "here", and another for "hear"? Or is there one button with dual meanings? I tried to figure it out from watching which buttons Bunny pressed, but they were in different configurations so I couldn't.

    I really do think Bunny is trying hard to deepen the conversation but doesn’t have enough words and concepts.

What do you think mom?

      I wonder if the linguists on the research team, could create a 100 word language, like Toki Pona (pls the wiki, can not add links on UA-cam).
      And with 100 buttons, the linguists would also need to workout out, how to arrange for ease of use and minimal body movement. Eg. Verbs could be in the middle board

    Just wanted to point out that a dog might not view "house" as the building, 4 walls. "House" might be a bigger area, including outside.
    I know my dog guards our "house" and that includes barking at any unknown person across the street and halfway down the block. So "stranger in house" should be considered accurate, even if the issue is something outside. Definitions are different.

    Could Bunny and Otter have seen Otter's reflection in the glass window pane?
