The fact that he has a voice outside of the trumpeting 'whaap whaap' sound is sacrilege
Correct, but he famously says "noot noot".
I'm not a native speaker of Penguish
I'm not a native speaker of Horseish either but I know they don't say "rrribbit".
I know a lot of words that are not said in Chinese, however I can't spell a single word correctly that is.
So what you're saying is that it is the spelling of "noot noot" that's the issue. I get ya.
I was being facetious, however how one would spell something in what isn't their language can be difficult. Look at /r/boneappletea for examples.
Once you showed me a better way of describing the sound it makes instant sense. Even though by thinking about it I can almost hear the sound, it's rather hard finding the correct way to describe it in English (which isn't my native language)
Interesting. English isn't my native language either, but I do speak and write at a native level due to a few factors, so that might be the difference.
That way you are familiar with the spelling of fantasy animal noises?
No, just sounds/phonetics in English in general, due to lots of experience.
