Good, but how can you make cat noises with an accent? Feel free to provide examples :)

[-] Hubi@feddit.org 31 points 2 weeks ago

"Няв" in Ukrainian vs "мяу" in Russian

In Spanish class, we were taught that dogs go "guau guau" instead of "bark bark"

I was taught that in Japan dogs say "Wan wan" when barking

  • Kef kef: Small dogs like chihuahuas
  • Waf: Medium sized dogs
  • Woef: Larger dogs

I hadn't considered size of the dog. I guess small dogs yap or yip in English, not bark

Your dogs have accents depending on size? German ones are boring and speak in standard Wuff.

Polish is written "hau hau hau*" in English it sounds like "How how how"

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

LOVE that. Gonna start using it in my dog

Meow vs. Miaou for example (that's a French accent)
