Subject: Birds Names


Hi, Ron, Lowlanners,


could  happen I appear boring for You insisting in bird-names. Sorry!


But- I did hear two new words I have never heard before, though I am native:


1. (Latin/zoological): “ Branta leucopsis”, (E): “ Barnacle Goose”, (D)
“Brandgans”, (UG) “ Weisswangengans”, also “Nonnengans”  is in our LS:
“Kankaeileer” (“Krakeeler”, as it could be in UG?) or something very
similar.


2. (Latin/zoological): “ Anser albifrons”. (E): “White-fronted Goose”, (D):
“ Kolgans”, (UG): “ Blaessgans” is in our LS: “Schroauker”.


Derivated from the verbs:


1. (LS): “kankaeelen” means (UG): “ durcheinander reden“, „schnattern“,
„krakeelen“, (E): „cackle“, „chat“.


2. (LS): „schroauken“ means (UG): „grölen“, (E): „to bawl“ (make noise with
a rough voice)


Without any hybris or conceit: do You find these words in  the (for example)
“Neuer Sass”?

If You do: I shall kick up my back and hurry to the next relevant book shop
(just 40 km’s away, in Stade) and try to buy one copy of them J!


Sorry- too tired for a LS-version.


Good Night


Fiete.

PS: The (D) and (UG) “Brandgans” means something different here: it’s the
(Latin): “ Tadorna tadorna”, (E)

“ Shelduck”, (D): “Bergeend”.
