Onomatopoeia

What do dogs say? "Woof-woof". But in Korea they say "mung-mung". Before I came to Korea it never occured to me that animals would have different sounds throughout the world. But they do, and this site sent to me by Andrée has very cleverly collected different examples of animal and other sounds from around the world. The layout is very well done and most of the recordings are of kids and so is very cute to boot. What I find interesting is that some animals have pretty much the same sound throughout the world, like the snake, but some like the dog or frog are often strikingly different.
