Cock-a-Doodle-Do Me





Today I learned the useful skill of saying Cock-a-doodle-doo in 19 other languages.
Now I can talk to chickens where ever I go.



Chinese: gue-gue ou gou-gou
Danish: kykliky
Finnish: kukkokeikuu
French: cocorico
German: kikeriki
Greek: kikiriki
Hebrew: coucouricou
Gaelic: cuc-a-dudal-du
Italian: chicchirichi
Japanese: kou-kou-kou-kou
Dutch: kukeleku
Norwegian: kukkeliky
Polish: kukuryky
Portuguese: cocorococo
Romanian: cucurigu
Russian: kou-ka-re-kou
Serbo-Croatian: kukuriky
Spanish: quiquiriqui
Swedish: kuckeliku

Actually, roosters sound more like, "Ert-errrr-ert-errrrrr!". And I know. You should hear me.
