This is a topic that always makes my mum laugh. She can't understand why a dog barks like "guau" in Spanish while it sounds like "woof" in English. They are onomatopoeias, that is, the imitation of a sound made by an animal, for example.
In the following video you will learn a little bit more about it and then, you can also read more information in that webpage.
