belfastish Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 i read in a thai book dont embarass yourself by saying quack quack to a duck as you say gob gob or similar noise. my thai friend comfirmed this when i brought it up a bird goes jip jip and a lot of other animals. now is this a translation difference or does the animal accually make a different noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunsanuk Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hi, "also " mah hao " similar to " howl "... " Actually, "mah hao" means 'bark'. I think 'howl' is "hawn". Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only females "quack;" males make a noise more akin to "kaap kaap" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
