Washoe's caregivers said that the fact that she combined the signs for "water" and "bird" to refer to a duck meant that she could create new signs generatively, just as people can create new words generatively. What is the biggest flaw in this reasoning?

A. Because her caregivers taught her only a few words, the fact that she signed the words "water" and "bird" may have been a coincidence. B. Washoe may have been signing what she saw--a bird and some water--rather than making up a new word. C. Washoe's generation of a new word was not linguistically significant unless she taught that word to other chimps. D. There is no flaw. Washoe proved that she and other chimpanzees were capable of inventing language.
