Dear Claire and all, > Talking about cats and dogs,they have quite different > temperaments,aren't they?
Talking about cats and other animals, the other day we were having lunch with my workmates and a German guest (we sometimes receive the visit of some colleagues of my workmates). He is close to us because he is really friendly and has good sense of humor and speaks Spanish. Somebody asked whether of not dogs bark the same way in Germany/US/ Colombia! What an occurrence! isn't it? Well, seriously, If I remember well, our friend told us that dogs in German barks different!! Perhaps... ARF.. ARF... (make you try, with a husky voice... ;)) and in Colombia: GUAU.. GUAU... (don't worry if you can reproduce that barking, unless you are spanish-speaker! ;) LOL Well, there were more than one skeptic person, or nobody cared! And I told them, "I'm sure parrot talk different in German, China, US or Colombia!" ;) LOL And everybody laughed... I wonder if somebody of you has a bilingual parrot! ;) LOL Have a good time friends!
