"Parrot Talk" joke

A SCHOLARLY Nawab fond of birds came across an elegant-looking parrot on sale whose main attribute was stated to be command over classical languages. When asked about the correctness of the claim, pat came the response from the parrot in Persian:' Dreechay Shak!, meaning there is not an iota of doubt about it.
Highly impressed, the Nawab paid the large sum being demanded for it, and brought the proud possession home, flaunting it before a circle of close friends and scholars. They went into peals of laughter when a casual question on whether their friend had been cheated, brought forth the same monotonous response:' Dreechay Shak' which were the only words known to the linguist parrot!'
