Congress Debates Merits Of New Catchphrase
Funny--that's just what I said about stot. Great image, isn't it? :-)
I know that pronk isn't technically onomatopoetic, but can't you hear kangaroos making a similar sound in a cartoon? :)
Pronk, pronk, pronk, pronk!
Ditto! Plus, I think I might like stot even better than pronk.
I smell a list...
Thanks, perodicticus--learn something new every day. :-)
According to Richard Despard Estes' book The Behavior Guide to African Mammals, only springboks pronk; other antelope stot.
Nice word! I can imagine someone pronking right out of his shoes.
Ibexes pronk.
The L.A. Lakers pronk.
Kangaroos pronk.
Antelopes pronk.
J, I think it means "to jump straight up" (as opposed to, say, leaping forward). Great word. :-)
What an adorable word!!! Could you give an example or a reference?
