Purring is a unique vocal feature in the domestic cat. However, other species in the Felidae family also purr: bobcat, cheetah, Eurasian lynx, puma, and wild cat. Although some big cats like lions exhibit a purr-like sound, studies show that the Patherinae subfamily: lion, tiger, leopard, jaguar, snow leopard, and clouded leopard do not exhibit true purring。
呼噜声是家猫所特有的发音特征。然而,在猫科动物中,其他种类也会发出呼噜声,如短尾猫、猎豹、欧亚猞猁、美洲狮和野猫。尽管像狮子一类的大型猫科动物也会发出呼噜般的声音,研究却表明豹亚科动物,比如狮子、老虎、美洲豹、美洲虎、雪豹及云豹,并不能发出真正的呼噜声。
What makes the purr distinctive from other cat vocalizations is that it is produced during the entire respiratory cycle (inhaling and exhaling). Other vocalizations such as the "meow" are limited to the expiration of the breath
呼噜声与猫科动物的其他发声的不同之处在于,前者产生于整个呼吸循环(包括吸气和呼气)过程中;而像“喵”这样的其他发声现象仅在呼气的时候产生。 |
