Before we go, here’s your random trivia of the day:
You know how Old McDonald had a farm with cows that mooed and pigs that oinked and ducks that quacked? Well, if his farm had been located outside the U.S., his animals would have sounded decidedly different. It’s not that animals actually sound different in other countries, it’s that people interpret their sounds differently.
For example, according to the French, cows say “meuh,” pigs say “groin-groin” and ducks say “coin coin.” As for their cats? They don’t purr – they “ronron.”
