It's not possible for chimps to speak English or any other human language, because their vocal chords and throat structure are very different from ours. However, many chimps have learned to "speak" in American Sign Language and some have been trained to use a specially designed computer keyboard. The keys of the keyboard have geometric shapes and symbols instead of letters, and the chimps use them to build words and sentences.
 
I knew the Young and the Restless was in Genoa City and I knew chimps can use sign language but not English but that's it. :(

I am interested in what you said about the cards so next time I cross over the border to Germany or Switzerland I'll pick up a couple of packs. Thanks for that!
