Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that chimpanzees are capable of some level of propositional thought, which means they can create mental representations of events and situations that are not currently present. This includes the ability to plan and problem solve. While chimpanzees do have some vocal communication abilities, they do not have the same phonology as humans and are not capable of complex syntactical rules or referring to things in the past tense in the same way that humans do.
