A parrot is a tropical bird with a curved beak and brightly-coloured or grey feathers. Parrots can be kept as pets. Some parrots are able to copy what people say.

If you disapprove of the fact that someone is just repeating what someone else has said, often without really understanding it, you can say that they are parroting it.

If you say that you feel as sick as a parrot, you feel very disappointed about something.
