Jane Welsh Carlyle

It is odd what notions men seem to have of the scantiness of a woman's resources. They do not find it anything out of nature that they should be able to exist by themselves; but a woman must always be borne about on somebody's shoulders, and dandled or chirped to, or it is supposed she will fall into the blackest melancholy!

I'm definitely not one of those guys that's chirping the guys that dress super nice, because you know, there's guys out there in the league - and on my team in fact - that have great style. And I'm just like, 'go for it, man, you look good!

Tell me not of joy: there's none Now my little sparrow's gone; He, just as you, Would toy and woo, He would chirp and flatter me, He would hang the wing awhile, Till at length he saw me smile, Lord! how sullen he would be!

There's a lot of guys in my weight class that are talking - they're chirping. Everybody wants the title. Everybody wants to fight me; everybody thinks they can beat me. People are talking because they think I can't fight.

Lush green forests, chirping birds and the gentle beast... that's what the shoot for 'Haathi... ' is like every single day. A life-changing experience which not only is beautiful at the face of it but the soul too.

Throughout the day, my phone will variously chirp, burp and growl - it's like living with a velociraptor. The last time I went to try to shut it off, the thing bit me.

The ocean is 20 minutes away. Nature surrounds me 24/7. I wake up to the sounds of birds chirping. I also love that I can go out to dinner in jeans and flip-flops.

Every day the choristers of the social web chirp their advice about openness and trust; craigslist follows none of it, and every day it grows.

American Journalist

What I don't like to see is a lot of chirping and guys just talking crap to each other. If you got something wrong with a guy, go see him.

I regard sledging, chirping, whatever you want to call it, as one of the weapons at my disposal.

Think of chirp as a sound that's higher than a typical bird call, but not as sustained as a song.

High-pitched Sound

A chirp is quick and short; imagine the brief tweets of a robin, not the long coos of a dove.

Brevity Matters

Use chirp when describing a sound that's similar in pitch and duration to that of a small bird.

Describing Sound

Remember, chirp isn't just for birds. It can describe any short, high sound.

Not Only Birds

Chirp can suggest someone's mood is bright and happy when they speak.

Cheerful Expression

When someone chirps in a conversation, picture them with a smile and lively gestures.

Energetic Conversation

In technical contexts, chirp isn't about sound but refers to electronic signals.

Technical Context

Chirps in sonar and radar are important cues for detecting movement or distance.

 set here with us and they were chirping away and the little one was grooming mom and it was just very cute to watch the two of them kind of interact with one another but they have gone towards the grassy area which is a good thing in a way because that grassy section is far more protected for this little chick and where it can hide so I didn't want to disturb them any further but super cute
