Basically it all depends if you were to train the animal to do so then there is a good chance that it can understand what you are saying. For an example, dogs do not understand humans but they do understand body language so if you were to teach them a simple command like sit then i guess they can understand you but through body language it all just takes time and patience.

Why can't humans talk to animals?

Animals have not evolved the ability to understand language (i.e. their brains are not capable of comprehending language even if we try to teach them, with the exception of some primates). Some animals, such as the cats and dogs that we are familiar with, appear to "understand" us and even some of our words quite well. They can make associations, and most often pay attention to our tone as we speak. They do not actually understand what we are saying in terms of grammar and syntax, and usually not in our meaning either.

Yes, if you think about it, we humans are animals. We are the homo-sapiens, very intelligent in our progress of making a language, creating shelter, technology, and having scientific advances.
