@@reynhacoezy5510 The reason why I've always thought people say that is because roosters sometimes make that "er-er-er-er-errrrrrrrrrr" sound (you know the one) and it matches up with the tune of it. Also, roosters are cocks.

[@olivia2786]

@@Billoybong2 Okay so I did a little bit of research, and apparently, JYP has never explicitly stated who the official visual of Twice is. However, many people seem to agree that Tzuyu is Twice's "official" visual. I thought Nayeon would be the visual because she is usually in the centre, but she is known as the "face of the group" (according to some sources). The difference between the two (from what I've read) is: - that the face of the group is the person who represents the group - the centre is the person who is usually in front or in centre - the visual is the groups most visual/striking member So, based on what I have found, Nayeon is the centre and face of the group, and Tzuyu would be the visual.

[@TheFeldhamster]

That's because old world frogs don't sound like "ribbit". The sound depends on the species of frog and our frogs sound like "quaaak". Therefore, the onomatopoeia for frog is similar to that sound in European languages. (No idea what Japanese frogs sound like.)
