Well if they're brain part where persons memory lies is not in total disorder, then they might say some meaningless words at random occasions. Not that i say they will understand what they talk(much like parrots). As long as they wouldnt start telling jokes it wouldnt piss me off though.

I don't know, some witty one-liners as a "smart" zombie chomps on the asshole of the group might actually endear me toward them...at the very least I would save them 'till last to finish them off.

I think your rite... The voice box will rot and as far as we know the only thing that stays in there brain is the most fundemental urge and need and that is nourishment to stay alive .... my personal opinion is that they like it too so I dont mind causing them BIG hurt.

I think it it might depend on the body that is taken over by the infection. If it is a old decaying body I would have to say they would not be able to talk. If it was a fresh kill, the internals will still let sounds and noises emerge. As far as regular talking I think it it could be possible.

zombies (barring the ones who's throats are torn out ) are technically able to talk but lack ether the desire or mental ability to talk. keep in mind its like a one in 10 chance that they can even climb

Depends on what philosophy you believe... but I would say that in general no... Communication is for rational thought and regardless of type, zombies seem to lack rational thought beyond the instinctual. That and decayed vocal cords would be kinda useless after awhile.

MAX BROOK'S ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GUIDE!

Zombies cannot communicate. They don't seem to notice other zombies, surroundings and weather. They are the walking morons.
They will only moan at their prey while appoarching.

A zombie's moan can drive you insane. It's physcological warfare. They don't even know it!
