Abstract
Duest and dialogues (verbal, whistle, verbal-species-specific, and ver bal-behavioral) between humans and captive birds are considered (Commu nication between a man and bird including nonverbal signals made by at least one partner is defined here as a duet). Three-dimensional graph s are provided for the speech replicas of the man and bird and for the species-specific response signals of birds. KAPROS-01 software was us ed as an acoustic analyzer, It has been proposed that acoustic communi cation between biocoenosis members and, specifically, antiphonal singi ng is a prototype of duets and dialogues between humans and captive bi rds, It has also been proposed that associative relations between soun d signals and corresponding situations are inherent in birds in nature , and this markedly facilitates formation of focused, improvised and m atched dialogues with nonfixed replicas between humans and captive bir ds.
