What is nya?
Meow in Japanese
Wow I didn't know cats spoke different languages. What does a cat sound like in Brazil?
Japanese has tons of great onomatopoeia. The Fox says "kon kon", and the mouse goes "chuu chuu".
And kissing is chu, I believe, so mice make kissing noises?
Yep, a long kiss at least. ๐
Not only cats, most sounds are expressed differently in different languages. If you want to learn more about that you should search for cross-linguistic onomatopoeia.
Word.
Cows have regional accents.
