Quite Special Parrot Moshe wants to buy a parrot and goes to his local pet shop to see what they have. The assistant shows him a parrot and explains that this one is really quite special -- it can speak most languages. So Moshe decides to test this out: 'Do you speak English?' asks Moshe.
'Yes,' replies the parrot.
'Hablas Espanol?' asks Moshe. 'Si,' replies the parrot.
'Parlez-vouz Fransais?' asks Moshe. 'Oui,' replies the parrot.
'Sprechen sie Deutsch?' asks Moshe. 'Jawohl,' replies the parrot.
'Falas Portugues?' asks Moshe. 'Sim,' replies the parrot.
Moshe pauses for a while, then asks the parrot, 'Do you speak Yiddish?'
The parrot shrugs its shoulders and says, 'Nu? Vis a nose like dis, vot you tink?'
