Bunny’s abilities are truly impressive! Bunny is able to communicate using the sounds we use in the English language, which do not always resemble what the represent (except for onomatopoeia). This means Bunny is demonstrating an understanding of what design feature?
Arbitrariness
Bunny is demonstrating an understanding of the design feature of arbitrary symbols. Arbitrary symbols are symbols, sounds, or words that do not naturally correspond to the objects or concepts they represent. The symbols we use in language are learned and agreed upon by a group of people, and they have no inherent connection to the objects or concepts they represent. Bunny’s ability to use English sounds to communicate despite those sounds not resembling what they represent is a strong indication that Bunny has learned and understands the arbitrary symbols that make up the English language.
