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

"Няв" in Ukrainian vs "мяу" in Russian

[–] Dicska 6 points 2 weeks ago

That's interesting! The default cat sound in my language is "miau", which sounds much more like the second one, but when someone is making that noise, we say he/she "nyávog", which seems to be the first one + 'og'.

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

  • 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"

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