The cat said, "meow". Marc said yes. The cat meowed as I walked by. Marc said no. He said these are words that described the sounds that the animals make. They are pretty much onomatopoeias of the animals noises. -=-=- Are we sure "excl" is the correct part of speech? ~naHQun -- ~Michael Roney, Jr. Freelance Translator

~naHQun
What other part of speech would it be? It's not a verb nor really a noun, it's a sound effect like "pow" or "kazam", which I think would be considered an exclamation. I'm open to change if it there's a solid argument it should be something else. qurgh
