In high school, I took Japanese for a year and LOVED it. I took Spanish for seven years and can get by, but am not fluent at all at it (ask my husband how I tried to communicate when we went to Cancun). So anyway, I might be at the same level for both haha but I remember extremely random things from Japanese... like the sounds that Japanese animals make.
It came up in conversation with my boss today who found it hilarious and I looked up some more of the Japanese animal noises.
Rooster:
kokekokko
コケコッコー
(Cock-a-doodle-doo)
Mouse:
chuu chuu
チューチュー
Cat:
nyaa nyaa
ニャーニャー
(meow)
Pig:
buu buu
ブーブー
(oink)
Sheep:
mee mee
メーメー
(baa baa)
Dog:

(woof, bark)
And my favorite, the frog:

ケロケロ
(ribbit)
