I'm partial to "gav", which is the Russian version, and "gavgava" for the=

brivla. Different dogs speak with different accents. With "uuf" or "gav", I=
'd=20
use "sa'ei" or "lu ... li'u", but not both.

"quack" has a good pedigree, being found in most Germanic languages and=20
several others. The French is "coin", which unrelatedly also means "corner"=
.=20
The Russian is "=CB=D2=D1". The brivla could be "kuakna" or "kriaka".

I think "splac" is malgli (at least the 's' at the beginning). How about=20
"pluf", "plusk", or "plask"? Come to think of it, English "sh" often comes=
=20
from Old English "sc", so maybe English "plash" and Russian "=D0=CC=C1=D3=
=CB" have a=20
common root.

There was a discussion some years ago about cows saying five. :)
