In a general sense, any bird of the order Psittaci.
Any species of Psittacus, Chrysotis, Pionus, and other
genera of the family Psittacidae, as distinguished from the parrakeets,
macaws, and lories. They have a short rounded or even tail, and often a
naked space on the cheeks. The gray parrot, or jako (P. erithacus) of

(Chrysotis) of America, are examples. Many species, as cage birds,
readily learn to imitate sounds, and to repeat words and phrases.
