"Muke, muke!" y'all! 

 One of the items I was most surprised about in my travels was how dogs bark in different languages.
 ...
 Hopefully you're confused right now as was I. As an English speaking person, my dogs go "Woof" and "Ruff" and "Bark". Given all things throughout creation, I could swear to you that this is Universal, yes?
 Au contraire! I cannot remember exactly which languages, countries and the exact pronunciations involved, so I will fabricate some of what follows.
 Anyway, in one country I was told dogs don't "Back" the "Muraff". Close enough, I guess, but in another I was told they "Muff. Muff", heavy on the 'M'.
 In another, they looked at me oddly for "Bark" and replied it was "Muke, muke".
 And it's not just dogs, although those are the easiest to reference. Cats "mutter", Birds "ketch" and even cows "mic".
 Cow's "mic"ing? Seriously? If you say so.
 Anyway, I was talking to my dog the other while and was half wondering if I should switch to French or some other language. I decided against it. I am currently "English" based and see no reason to switch for the canine.
 Although ... decades and decades ago, I once owned a dog named Poppy who understood basic German. So for many of the commands I'd issue to her, she would follow them better if given in German.
 An my previous dog, <private>, while not prone to any specific language I did always the the impression died while a French soldier. I say this because I would catch visions of specific uniform types whenever there was any thunder and explosion sounding. She would shake and shiver through these loud, explosive sounds and I'd see privates being given commands to get out of foxholes and rush across the battlefield.
 Given her reactions, I'd have to say she was some of the millions who never made it far once she stood up and tried to run.
