What is nya?
Meow in Japanese
Wow I didn't know cats spoke different languages. What does a cat sound like in Brazil?
miau
Bonus: bunnies jumping in Japan can be heard making the sound pyon
Japanese has tons of great onomatopoeia. The Fox says "kon kon", and the mouse goes "chuu chuu".
And kissing is chu, I believe, so mice make kissing noises?
Yep, a long kiss at least. 😛
Not only cats, most sounds are expressed differently in different languages. If you want to learn more about that you should search for cross-linguistic onomatopoeia.
Word.
Cows have regional accents.
