QUE SIGNIFIE PURR EN ANGLAIS

Ronronner

Purr

Un ronronnement est un son fabriqué par toutes les espèces de feldes. Il varie entre les chats, et d'espèces en espèces, mais peut être caractérisé comme un bourdonnement tonal. Le terme «ronronnement» a été utilisé libéralement dans la littérature, et on a prétendu que les vivrids, les ours, les blaireaux, les hirondelles ronronnaient. D'autres animaux qui ont dit ronronner sont des lapins, des écureuils, des cobayes, des tapirs, des lémuriens à anneau, des éléphants, des ratons et des gorilles en mangeant. Cependant, en utilisant une définition stricte du ronronnement de la production sonore continue, il faut alterner entre le flux pulmonaire progressif et le courant d'entrée, Peters, dans un examen exhaustif de la littérature scientifique, a conclu que, jusqu'à ce moment-là, seuls les «ronronnants de chats» et deux espèces de génètes, Genetta Tigrina, et très probablement aussi Genetta genetta, avait été documentée pour ronronner.

A purr is a sound made by all species of felids. It varies between cats, and from species to species, but can be characterized as a tonal buzzing. The term "purring" has been used liberally in literature, and it has been claimed that viverrids, bears, badgers, hyaenas purr. Other animals that have been said to purr are rabbits, squirrels, guinea pigs, tapirs, ring-tailed lemurs, elephants, raccoons and gorillas while eating. However, using a strict definition of purring that continuous sound production must alternate between pulmonic egressive and ingressive airstream, Peters, in an exhaustive review of the scientific literature, reached the conclusion that until then only ‘purring cats’ and two species of genets, Genetta tigrina, and most likely also Genetta genetta, had been documented to purr.
