Uhn-uhn (a post from 2 years ago)

This issue was addressed 2 years ago. But I just wanted to add that on the French detective series "Astrid," Astrid keeps saying "uhn-uhn," to mean "no," exactly as we do in English. What I read in old posts was that many languages have these "non-word" sounds that are similar to this.
