how does your cock crow in the morning?

[Ladytron]

this morning while waking up me and mdk were disagreeing about how does the cock crow.

i say it like this: KuukkUUuuuriiikkuuUUUUU

and he says something like: Cock-a-doodle-do (i even couldn't write it. i need his help). since when cocks are yodelling?!

i'm just curious what everyone else think about this.

btw, good morning

[Hanoimé]

cocks do not yodle, there's no l's or d's in their crow.
cocks here say kukkokiekuu

Cock-a-doodle-doo sounds sort of redneckesque, btw.

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

It's definitely Cock-a-doodle-doo.

[decadnids]

mine goes cock-a-doodle-don't

My Gentle Cock

I have a gentle cock
Who crows the day;
He gets me up early
My prayers to say.

I have a gentle cock,
He's descended from the great;
His comb is of red coral,
His tail is of black.

His legs are azure,
So gentle & so small;
His spurs are of silver
Down to the wall.

His eyes are of crystal,
Set all in amber;
& every night he perches
In my lady's chamber.

[Ladytron]

It's definitely Cock-a-doodle-doo.

ughhhh... grrrrr... you... @%@$&&

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

alol

[Ladytron]

Hanoimé you are so right :-)

[Hanoimé]

you too...

seriously, if you listen to the cock's crow, we are right on this.

[thepigjockey]

Macedonian and Finnish cocks are much the same then I guess, just the ones in the UK that are mutants...

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

I just asked a panel of scientists. Sorry it is definitely Cock-a-doodley-doo-doo.

[Yer_Maw]

fnarr

[e_wann]

well aint all cocks different in each land when you see a vocal pronaunciation of a barking dog, lets say in comics: i bet in each language its a different bark so why wouldn't cocks be multi-langual

[Hanoimé]

but there is no l's or d's in the crow! even if you pronounce it the english way, you can still hear the l's and d's. l

now listen to the cock.... none!

a dog barks woof (engl) or hau (fin), but both sound right, so thats ok.

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

i think the British have better ears. Otherwise we wouldn't have given the world Coldplay, The Editors, The Killers, The Zutons, Kaiser Chiefs, Futureheads and Hard-Fi.

Irrelevant I know, The Killers are from Las Vegas.

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

You are having trouble so I am going to pronounce it LOUDLY and SLOWLY.

COOOOOOOCK AAAA DOOOOOOOOODLE DOOOOOOOOO

[Hanoimé]

l's and d's galore! noooo! so wrong. poor british cocks. sniff.

[spoon]

cows don't ACTUALLY say MOO. they don't. there's no M in the moo that cows say.

so why do we perpetuate the myth that cows say moo? why do we poison our childrens minds by feeding them such madness?

my god, what have we done?

[Hanoimé]

whhhaaat!?

cows definately say the m in their moo! what's wrong with you Spoon? Or am i just out of it?

[Patrick]

What animal goes "oooooooo" ?
A cow with no lips.



sorry.

[kams]

god you think cows are troublesome... I'm constantly in a state of frenzy trying to recocile Luca's big eyed expectant expression with the fact that I have no idea what noise a rabbit makes! Or the difference between a sheep and a goat... he just looks at me like he's thinking "dont try and tell me a goat says the same a sheep.... what do you take me for??"

[spoon]

whhhaaat!?

cows definately say the m in their moo! what's wrong with you Spoon? Or am i just out of it?


sometimes they say woo, or noo, or just ooooooom. a moo isn't as common as we'd like to think!

[Hanoimé]

i say ooom at yoga.

[dan gulberry]

I've had the same conversation with my finnish gf. I've been put in my place.

Also, according to the finns I know, cows go 'amoooo' not 'mooooo'. Amazing how they are able to articulate that small difference between an 'a' and an 'ooo'.

[Orang Utan]

French dogs go 'wauwauwau'

Divcunts.

[dan gulberry]

The other one is pigs: now, do they go 'oink' or is my gf right in saying that they actually go 'hrrrr hrrrr'? Cos I don't think a pig can roll its Rs.

I do admit that it also probably can't pronounce a k or n.

[Loz]

French dogs go 'wauwauwau'

Divcunts.

french dogs wear checked scarves around their necks, though, so respect due

[Hanoimé]

pigs here say nöf-nöf
never could grasp the oink...

[Patrick]

They go 'oink', except when they are sniggering at a smutty innuendo when they go 'hrrr hrrrr'.

Then there's the whole running home from market business, but that's another whole hornet's nest we don't want to get bogged down in.

[don___quixote]

sheep in wales say "i do"

[Hanoimé]

or "please don't"

[e_wann]

A cow with no lips.


or the audince when they see a bull being hit on the balls with a criket-bat

and a chicken with a sense of humor/suicide-tension goes : Atshoej

[Jeniffer Mills]

The german cocks go "kickerikiii" lol

[thepigjockey]

Oh, I heard it was 'hru-hru' (spelling may be wrong here), but maybe it's a regional thing?

edit- I didn't notice Dan had mentioned this already)

[Hanoimé]

yes they also say röh-röh

[mdk]

The german cocks go "kickerikiii" lol

sounds like that poor bird has a speech defect, i've heard a couple like that before..its so sad, you can hear them struggling to say cock-a-doodle-do properly but it just comes out like a strangled 'aaaaaaaaauuuuuuuaaa'

[ckpqerjwrpwp]

I think that confirms it. Cock-a-doodle-doo.

[Jeniffer Mills]

Let`s face it:to imitate the right noise , it`s an "er er er eeeeeeeerrrrr"! don`t matter if your cock is macedonian, british or whatever! Full stop! lol

[nempsey]

the french cock says cocorico

cocks crows have 4 syllables. fack. us brits are suffering from the same horrific verbal disease as flanders who says 'okely dokely' instead of okey dokey.

the british cock blatantly should be saying 'cock a doo doo' there is NO need for an l, it is simply an elaborate victorian embellishment

[Yer_Maw]

i seem to remember tintins dog says something like oweoweoweo instead of woof in french. wow!

[penciLneck]

dutch crows do it with a 'K'.

Kukelekuuuuu...

[dSort]

Macedonian and Finnish cocks are much the same then I guess, just the ones in the UK that are mutants...
Same here.Our cocks say "Kukuryku"

[Sheridan]

haha! you all said cock.

[dSort]

so i wasn`t the only onewho had dirty things on my mind when entering this topic?

[penciLneck]

except me. I said crow. doh!

[notorious J.I.M]

I just googled animal noises and found this (http://www.georgetown.edu/faculty/ballc/animals/rooster.html) site. The sound of a 'rooster' as it calls it (obviously American) is different in every language. The name 'cock' comes from the English version though so we must be right!

I love how they're all basically the same.. sort of "koo koo ree koo".. except english which has the whole "doodle do" thing. I think the other nations of the world really missed a trick there.

I like the Thai version ake-e-ake-ake it should have an oi-oi-oi on the end!

"Finnish pigs/places are more joint" (as in a term of anatomy)

Nice one, good effort, getting there. Baby steps.

[dan gulberry]

Ah, cool, it was only the last word that was wrong (and that was one I checked online). I was looking for 'articulate' (as in have more control and skill with what they 'say').

My finnish is progressing in ant steps

[Hanoimé]

i was being maybe a bit too polite, there was some spelling problems etc. but why be that anal, it's all about communication, communication, communication! between cocks, pigs, cows and us!

getting there

I took evening classes for a year and a bit in London and now I'm just about to start a course here. It's hard but well done for trying, a much better attempt than I would have made anyway ;) You're studying it for a very good (the best?) reason anyway..
