Parrots Question

Can you teach a parrot an entire language so it understands as good as a human?

I really want a parrot and I heard African Greys are the best talkers, so I did more research on them and decided a Grey would be a good fit for me. But I was wondering if I would be able to teach him the whole English language so he'd understand it as well as me. Understand not mimick.

My friend once told me that he went to the pet shop and said "Hi,how are you?" to a parrot and the parrot answered "Fine.How about you?".
I don't know if that's a true story or not,but it would be very cool to have a parrot like that :)

I'm not sure. Parrots are only supposed to mimic but my conure (although he can't talk) has a large vocabulary of sounds and each seems to have a meaning. So it may be possible:)
