hissing and snarling Explanation: I think that's what I would call it if it were our cat (whose name is "Koshka", by the way, ridiculous as this may seem to Russian speakers). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-02 14:33:32 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \"HISS-S-S!\" is fine. Can\'t think of a phonetic rendering for фыркать though, which according to my dictionary means sniffing or snuffling. Maybe someone else can. |
