Gilbert can talk but not quite as good as some IRNS ive seen. He seems to make up his own words and mix it up. Only people have been around him a while can understand what hes saying. Occasionally he'll come out with a clear word. Like.. 'yeh yeh yeeeeah!' and 'CHICKY!' (in an excitable screaming voice). Other words he mixes up are 'What cha doin?' and 'hello'. He's only recently started saying 'Hi Gib! I love you' but very quietly and never if anyones watching him. (We call him Gibbee or Gib for short.)
Yoda seemed to say 'I love you' clearly. So I dont know if he learnt it off me or Gib.
I should really get a video camera one day and post Gilbert talking because he sounds nothing like the other IRN's ive seen. He seems to put kiss kiss sounds over the top of what he's saying. And he screams the words out more than just saying something.
