Predator: The Predator (Kevin Peter Hall)

I don't think they actually understand what they mean. In the sequel, the Predator plays back a recording of a kid going "Want some candy?" as he walks menacingly towards Bill Paxton. That said, the Predator does say "S**t happens" in the right context as he activates his self-destruct. The Predator also uses a recording of Danny Glover to Rueben Blades, but this might be because he understands the friendship between the two characters and exploits it to hunt Rueben.

The elder Predator at the end does say "Take it" after throwing Danny a gun, which might indicate some limited understanding on his part.

IMO, the laughter at the end by the predator is supposed to be its version of Billy's laugh and he is laughing because he thinks his setting off the "bomb" will kill the man who killed him.

I think the Predators understand a lot about humans and their language - especially in the wake of Alien vs. Predator's backstory.

We will learn later that the self-destruct thing is also to prevent aliens proliferation

The predator's "laugh" is a playback of the recording of Billy's laugh. Earlier we see the predator recording voices and analysing the sound profiles, playing it back at different speeds. The predator was not replying to Dutch so much as mimicking him.

''Perhaps he is suffering from some kind of strange Stockholm Syndrome''

HAHAHA! That is sooo hilarious!

the predator laughed because he had the last laugh

i have a bomb

even if you live

i win

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA lol

I would think that 'Not Quite Dead' would come into the death, because the log had not quite killed him.

Yeah, I agree Desert_Eagle. The log had not killed him entirely, although he would have died from his wounds.
