<< review queue entry 65386 - submitted by 'sl89' >> I just don't see any evidence on dictionaries or actual usage that 哗[huá] is used specifically for the sound of cat-calling. Even imagining cat-calling here to have the (now) less common meaning "the act or an instance of loudly or raucously expressing disapproval" (MW's 2nd chance), I don't see that it means specifically that sound. --------------------------------- Editor: 1) 嘩 huá : huár-huár – sound used to call cats "Concise Dictionary of Spoken Chinese" - Yuen Ren Chao & Lien Sheng Yang 2) 国台对照活用辞典 [...] 【咪】 (拟音) (台)猫吼叫[的]声或是人叫猫[的]声音。 例：～！～！猫来！(台)猫咪！来！ 类语：哗儿哗儿(北方)。 https://zh.m.wikisource.org/zh-hans/%E5%9C%8B%E8%87%BA%E5%B0%8D%E7%85%A7%E6%B4%BB%E7%94%A8%E8%BE%AD%E5%85%B8/%E3%84%87%E4%B8%80 |
