I wonder if speakers of other languages also find English words kind of ridiculous
Gift in German means poison.
It wouldn’t surprise me if they are on the opposite side of “lol German words are compounded like crazy” and look at us as “lol English has a different word for everything now get me a drink from the cool closet before I put you in the sick house, you shield toad.”
Ok, “shield toad”?
Turtle. Or tortoise. Same word for both in German.
Marvelous.
Words like comeuppance and conniption? Bunghole? Squeegee? Hoedown? Poppycock?
English has words I’m sure English speakers find funny/ridiculous.
According to google translate this means “lime stuffing” so it kinda just is ridiculous
It’d not actual Swedish, just words related to the product mashed together.
according to the Swedish dictionary, a “stuff” is a drill core, or other piece of rock that’s used in lab tests. so “kalkstuff” is a piece of limestone. google translate has no clue in this case.
So close
