Lulu: 我发现不同语言对于动物叫声的描述存在显著差异,这不仅仅是简单的声音模仿,更反映了不同文化背景下人们对世界的认知和表达方式。例如,中文和英文对猪、鸡、青蛙等动物的叫声都有不同的描述,这些差异让我意识到语言和文化之间紧密的联系。 我记得小时候学英语时,就对动物的英文叫法感到困惑,觉得和中文的叫法完全不一样。长大后,我才明白这背后涉及到文化差异和语言习惯的问题。通过比较这些差异,我能更深入地理解不同文化之间的差异和相似之处,从而更好地进行跨文化交流。 Alan: 我也认为动物叫声的差异体现了文化差异。在英语中,我们用不同的动词来描述动物发出的各种声音,比如“bark”形容狗叫,“howl”形容狼嚎。此外,有些动物的叫声还被引申到人类行为的描述中,比如用“bark”来形容老板发号施令。这些语言现象都反映了英语文化中对动物声音的独特理解和运用。 而且,不同语言对同一动物叫声的模拟也可能存在差异。例如,中文里羊叫“咩咩”,英文里是“baa baa baa”,这种差异可能是因为不同语言的语音系统和人们的听觉感知不同。了解这些差异有助于我们更好地理解不同文化背景下人们的思维方式和语言习惯。

Hi everyone and welcome back to Happy Hour 欢迎回来酒馆 Hi AlanHi LuluHi everyoneYou know what?I want to propose a really strange and very nonsensical topicDon't you always?How dare youRight, I'm gonna propose animal sounds because I was watching some video the other day and just realized that it's really really really different how animals sound or how people think they sound in different languagesOh yeah

所以我知道中国的动物声音和英文的动物声音完全不同哦,你真的知道吗?你知道中国的所有动物声音吗?我不知道所有的动物声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪的声音如何?猪猪猪的声音如何?猪猪猪的声音如何?猪猪猪的声音如何?猪猪猪的声

我们是叫汪汪

in English is...Woof woof.Roughly the same.Yeah.I've heard some...I don't know.In American, this seems like there was an old way of saying they say bow wow.

Yeah, I think that's what we call yappy dogs.What are yappy dogs? The loud ones?Loud and very, very small dogs.The chihuahuas.Yeah, but woof is the sound that they make, but there's loads and loads of different verbs to describe the different noises they make.So like...

bark 就是犬吠 they alsogrowlyesand some other like for example wolves they how 就是嚎叫那种那个 but we sometimes would also use bark on humanfor example my boss is barking orders at meyeah exactlyso let's go to cats nowcause let's face it we're both cat peoplecats just go meowmeow yeah

就是那个呼噜呼噜的那个声音像打葫芦那个声音

NoBut if you rub a cat's bellyit won't purrit will probably just try and bite youit doesn't likeor it will hiss at youYeahSo when a cat is being quite aggressivewhen a cat is angryhe goes

That's a hiss.That's a hiss.My cat hissed at me once after vet treatment.Well, I don't blame her.All right. Now let's move on to farm animals.Cows go...

That's roughly like what we would say 沐沐叫沐 沐 cowYeah, so the cows mooed loudly in the field It's also used as a verbLittle kitties say 沐 cow, don't they? What about horses?Horses normally go 餒

So… 捏…Oh, yes, I get it.So the horse 捏… when I got close to it.I don't even know how horses sound in Chinese.I just know that when we try to ride a horse, we say 驾.But in English is what?Giddy up.Giddy up.Giddy up.It's like… it's kind of the same.Yeah.Yeah, exactly. It's still the…

even though it's slightly different sounds, you can hear from the tone, it's pretty much the same.I know what is really different is sheep and goats.羊在中文里面是咩咩叫,说咩咩。In English they go baa baa baa。Why is it a bee sound?Because that's what it sounds like to us.And think about the word in English, barbarian.

所以,巴巴里安的词来自英国,而当他们听到人们不说英语时,他们相信他们像狗一样。

中文也有这种说法他们说的什么鸟语 It's basically degrading people and languages that you don't knowYeah, exactlyI guess we're all the sameWe're equally badSo talking about birdsChickens go cluck in EnglishFor us, chickens go 咯咯咯 In English they cluckOr if they're a roosterWell, a rooster in the morning they go cock-a-doodle-doo

cock-a-doodle-doo, I've heard of that.we say wo wo wo?yeah ok, so for you it sounds like cock-a-doodle-doo.yeah do that again.cock-a-doodle-doo, cock-a-doodle-doo.that's what it sounds like to us.it does sound fun.oh actually we missed out one farm animal.pigs for us is heng heng.

那个鼻子里面那个音 in English they go oinkwhich I think is goodbecause if you really read fastoink oink oinkis yeahso it's also a verbso the pig oinked excitedlyor oinked happilyso we talked about all the farm animalswe talked about chickenswhat about ducksducks go quackquackquack 差不多 yeah quack

quack quack quackand owls go hoothoot hoot so they owl hooted in the night

One thing that I found really weird is frogs.Because for us, frogs 瓜瓜.青蛙是瓜瓜叫。But in English is ribbit.Ribbit.Ribbit.Ribbit.Ribbit.It does sound like it, but I think we're picking the different sounds frogs make.Yeah.And the final one, bees.So what sound do bees make in Chinese?嗡嗡。Buzz。

对我们来说可能听起来像 woo in English they go bzzzso a buzzing beea buzzing beebees buzz around the flowersNow before we wrap this rather short episode up

我只是想和你分享一个很有趣的表达,关于我们在这一集中谈到的一句话,就是"bark".是的。记得我们说过,你可以说我的老板在我面前在我面前吩咐吗?你也可以用一个语言,就是"bark up the wrong tree".是的。

So Alan, what does that mean?So to park up the wrong tree means to make a wrong assumption.So for example, if I say, oh, I think he's done something wrong, but he didn't.

你可能会说"你正在吹换错了树"这不是他。我听到这个词的情况是,当一个女孩觉得"哦,安兰很吸引,我应该去跟她说话吧"然后她的朋友就说"我认为安兰喜欢男人,所以你正在吹换错了树"我只是用这个例子。好的。但是,对,"吹换错了树"在这里是你假设

I would like to point out this is just only for example purposesYes, you are super straightThank youSo barking up the wrong tree like Alan saidit's really just making a wrong assumption

pretty muchabout someonealrightso we're gonna wrap upthis rather short episodeand I'm going to goand listen toOld MacDonald's Had a Farmso as we start singingOld MacDonaldwe probably better finish off thereyeahso leave us a commentin the comment sectionshare with us any other questions
