Every Dog Has His Say
- Q$ q& i8 u, Y; s  KIMIKO Fukuda always wondered what her dog was trying to say. Whenever she put on makeup, it would pull at her sleeve.      (1) When the dog barks, she glances at a small electronic gadget. The following "human" translation appears on its screen: "Please take me with you." "I realized that's how he was feeling," says Fukuda. 6 Z$ T6 H; A: y( ]1 {
  The gadget is called Bowlingual, and it translates dog barks into feelings. People laughed when the Japanese toymaker Takara Company made the world's first dog-human translation machine in 2002. But 300,000 Japanese dog owners bought it.      (2)

  Bowlingual has two parts.      (3) The translation is done in the gadget using a database containing every kind of bark. + Q. y4 O$ C! a& B3 \. c
  Based on animal behaviour research, these noises are divided into six categories: happiness, sadness, frustration, anger, declaration and desire.      (4) In this way, the database scientifically matches a bark to an emotion, which is then translated into one of 200 phrases.
