Definition
呱呱叫 is a colloquial idiom meaning 'excellent' or 'top-notch'. Its literal meaning is 'to quack' (like a duck), but as a fixed expression it describes something that is of very high quality or outstanding. You can use it to praise a person's skill, a product, or a performance. Note that the standard pronunciation is guā guā jiào, though the input lists gū — this may be a data error.
