Did you know, just like humans, animals in different countries speak different languages? Check the differences between American animals and those living in the Czech Republic:
Bird
A- tweet tweet
C- pip pip
Cat
A- meow
C- mnau
Dog
A- woof woof
C- haf haf
Pig
A- oink oink
C- chro chro
Frog
A- ribbit ribbit
C- kvack kvack
Duck
A-quack quack
C- taj taj
Cow
A- moo
C- bu
Yeah...so apparently, a cow says bu and a ghost says mu and an owl says hu and when you want to scare someone you don't jump out and say "Boo!" (because that is what a cow says) you say "baf!" I'm so confused.

I love this. It's something you don't think about but it's so interesting! It was that way in Portugal too. I'm glad you have all the animals listed because I can't remember any of them in Portuguese! So sad. I should've written them down like you did. So smart.
I was just talking about this with someone, and I wanted to go online and find a list...and here you've done a blog on it! Perfect! I need to travel more like you so that I can meet more cultural cows...the ones here are so "moo"-ish. :)
