Ignore the sounds you dislike, in general. But be very enthusiastic when something interresting comes, give praise: Important to even if it's not perfect. If he's going to learn more talking you must gain a high level of trust and tameness and talk to him much. They learn from repetative talking and/or when you ask/describe something related to a spesific action. E.g saying bye when leaving. My birds say bye if I take my keys or start to dress for going out :) Talking in birds are highly individual, some talk at a high level and some says nothing at all. Buying a bird for talking abilities is not a good staring point in general. Appreciate birds behaviour/ actions instead and always see talking as a bonus :)
