I knew someone that had parrots. If the humans around them swear, it is easy for the birds to learn swear words because swear words are often used with animated emotion, and in short, loud phrases. Sadly, birds that learn swear words lose a lot of their resale value, or are deemed undesirable by perspective buyers.
When I was a kid, our neighbor had parrots.
They learned the cry of my baby sister
When their door/window to their room was open, they imitated it so well, that my mom went to the bedroom of my sister to check on her, just to find her sleeping in her bed
This happened a couple times until my mom figured out it was the parrots
I feel like the whole point of a talking pet is teaching it to swear at you
