Yeah what they need to know is "this place is too cold/hot, we need to get out of here". Can't think where dogs would need to know anything more. Most people don't need to know more either. I have no idea how refrigerators, plumbing or central heating work precisely but I can live my life mostly just normally. dogs just learn that appliances that look a certain way and are in a certain place are cold and store food.

Agreed. Consider the amount of pixels a single image could have and how many variations of color they could have. Just a 16x16 image has 256 pixels, and each can have 256^3 = 16,777,216 colors. In conclusion, there would be 4,294,967,296 possibilities. Now, consider you would have to find a single word for each variatoon.

Then, consider the size of the universe from atomic scale to the galaxies, and imagine if each subset of particles would need a separate word. Such an amount could only be astronomically large. This has not even accounted for any changes and processes in time.
