一只因为说脏话被动物收容所扫地出门的淘气鹦鹉，近日在亚马逊的Alexa设备中找到了知己。

非洲灰鹦鹉罗科被发现用语音助手Alexa播放它最喜欢的音乐、讲笑话甚至订购零食。

Thankfully the device's parental lock systemprevented the clever boy from actually purchasing any items -- which included strawberries, icecream and even a kettle.

所幸Alexa的家长锁系统阻止了这只聪明的小家伙真的买下任何商品--包括草莓、冰淇淋甚至还有一只水壶。

 

 

Owner Marion Wischnewski said she took the parrot in after he was removed from a sanctuaryoperated by the UK's National Animal Welfare Trust for swearing too much.

罗科的主人玛丽昂·维什涅夫斯基表示，因为说太多脏话而被英国国家保护动物基金会运营的一家收容所扫地出门后，她收养了这只鹦鹉。

Rocco, who was taught to curse by a previous owner, is evidently loving his new home, interacting with Alexa up to 40 times a day and mastering countless household sounds.

罗科是从原来的主人那里学会说脏话的，它显然非常喜欢自己的新家，每天与Alexa互动多达40次，还精通日常生活中的各种声音。

He can make various mobile ringtones, the beep of the microwave and the squeaking of therefrigerator door, as well as the sound of an ice cream van or a reversing truck, according toWischnewski.

维什涅夫斯基称，罗科能模仿好几种手机铃声、微波炉的哔哔声、冰箱门的咯吱声以及冰激凌车和卡车倒车的声音。
