She has gotten braver in coming down from the bedrooms and joining the rest of the clan, but mostly when the dogs have settled to a nap after an hours worth of play.
Ilish is a cute little (well 14 pounds) domestic short hair.
Ilish was kind scared with the rest of the yippy dogs and her less patient sibling Mia, and just not getting that much love, so we took her in our house to give her some space.

 'ILISH (Jewish Encyclopedia) - BibleWiki
One day while 'Ilish was sitting in the company of a fellow captive who understood the language of birds, the croak of a raven overhead prompted him to ask his companion what the bird said, and he was informed that the raven had said, "'Ilish, escape!" 'Ilish, however, disbelieved the message.
'Ilish succeeded in evading their pursuers, but his companion was overtaken and killed (Giṭ.
'Ilish showed some embarrassment, fearing that such errors might have occurred before in his judicial practise, but Raba reassured him (B. 133b).

 Indira Falk Gesink | "Chaos on the Earth": Subjective Truths versus Communal Unity in Islamic Law and the Rise of ...
     ‘Ilish held the Maliki position on the cessation of independent ijtihad and the social importance of taqlid to be of paramount importance.
The appointment also placed ‘Ilish on the front line of the intellectual defense of Islam during the rapid westernization of the Egyptian legal system under Khedive Isma‘il, the imposition of French and British financial controllers in the wake of Egypt's bankruptcy in 1876, and the quasi-nationalist ‘Urabi Revolt in 1879–1882—in which‘Ilish was a key participant.
Whereas conservative legal scholars such as ‘Ilish had championed taqlid as the means to strengthen Islamic society and claimed that independent ijtihad had ceased and should not be revived, the reformers saw taqlid as the cause of weakness and independent ijtihad as the means of reinvigoration.

ilish (hilsa) is a estuarine fish native (as far as i know) to bengal and bangladesh, prized by bengalis for its flavor and feared by all others for its millions of tiny bones.
to be able to eat an ilish with relish is considered by many to be the mark of a true bengali.
the "peti"--a cross-sectional cut from the stomach is the preferred cut for the shorshe ilish preparation; other cuts are best enjoyed lightly fried in mustard oil and eaten with steamed rice--the mustard oil and the fish's own "tel" or oil serving as a sauce.

The simple reading of this story indicates that Rabbi Ilish did not understand the language of the birds and was dependent on the skill of his fellow captive.
Rabbi Ilish certainly did understand bird language for otherwise he would not have attached any significance to their chirping.
The difference between this sage's reactions to the messages of raven and dove is explained by Maharsha on the basis of the performance of both those birds when sent by Noach after the Deluge to test the dryness of the land.

 Ilish
The ilian languages (known as the Ilish language family) may have originally evolved from the unusual reproductive cycle of the il.
The female of the species ejects its fertilized eggs over the face of the male il; these eggs completely cover the sonar-emitting and -receiving "eyes" of the male il, eventually rendering the male il "blind" (unable to use sonar) as the eggs take root and develop.
In summary, an Ilish pronoun refers to the following semantic components: attitude (beneficial, threatening, neutral), location (x, y and z coordinates) and context (seen at that location now, expected to be at that location now, at that location in the past).

"Ilish mach," she had informed me with a smile, holding it up in the air.
It is a medium-sized ilish ("they're small in the wintertime"), the downward slant of its mouth and the angular line of its lower jaw giving it a vaguely determined air.
She holds the ilish lengthwise along the blade, grasping it by the twin prows of its headless neck so that its back is towards her and slices open the soft white underbelly with one single fluid upward motion.

Such is the obsession with fish, it would be sacrilege to suggest that any part be discarded – the head is either fried crisp, or cooked into a flavoursome stew with vegetables and daal.
The golden mustard oil, once stored in row after row of zinc-lined tins, next to enormous terracotta jars of rice in the bhandar ghar; continues to give Bengali cuisine its biting, sharp flavour, along with mustard sauce (kasundi) and the magical paanch phoron spice mix.
Then comes the much awaited fish course, which could be the wonderful bhaapa ilish, which has cut pieces of hilsa mixed with a mayonnaise-like paste of ground mustard seeds, mustard oil, red and green chillies, turmeric and salt; wrapped in an airtight package of banana leaves and cooked along with rice.
