In English, someone who is being persistently annoying can be referred to as a “pain in the arse.” My favourite German equivalent is Nervensäge, which means “nerve saw”

Happy World Walrus Day! The English word walrus probably comes from Dutch and means “whale horse.” The Albanian name for a walrus, lopë deti, means “sea cow.” And the Navajo word for a walrus is tábąąstííntsoh bideeʼ hólónígíí. It means “big otter that lies on the shore, with tusks”

Grundet klimaforandringer er sneen endnu ikke nået til Nuuk.

If you don’t know, then who knows in your language?
For Dutch, we say ‘Joost mag het weten’ (Joost may know it), where Makhuwa says ‘Nluku tantsuwela’ (God is the one who knows).
What do you say?

4/ ... participle can be found in the adjective ‘volwassen’ (adult), literally “full-grown”.

Swedish ‘vuxen’ has the same meaning, being the past participle of ‘växa’ (to grow).

Dutch ‘wassen’, which became homophonous with the verb meaning “to wash”, is equally rare. Its past ... 3/
