yes, not very precise. nciku also says it's for cows, but I've never heard a
sound close to gua1 gua1 coming from a cow...
I suspect 呱呱 is sometimes a variant of 嘎嘎 (could be added to the def?).
This suspicion is further reinforced by the 咭咭呱呱 which has the same
meaning (chatting loudly) than 叽叽嘎嘎. Also we have 叽叽喳喳 which could
be added as a variant.
Diff:
= 呱 呱 [gu1] /crying sound of child/
+ 呱呱 呱呱 [gua1 gua1] /onomat. sound of frogs, ducks, etc./
+ 咭 咭 [ji1] /variant of 嘰|叽[ji1]/
+ 咭咭呱呱 咭咭呱呱 [ji1 ji1 gua1 gua1] /onomat. giggling noise/
