also have a word related to German Frosch, but with metathesis.
"Vors", where almost everywhere the normal change or > ör occurs
and r often disappears, giving "vörs" (northwest) or "vös"
(south and east). It also occasionally occurs in a compound form,
"kikvö(r)s" or "kinkvö(r)s" (also spotted in Netherlandish
Brabant);</span></p>

"kikker" from the first element of this compound. "kikvors"
is still a slightly archaic synonym in the standard language as well, now
mostly used in "kikvorsman", a diver in a diving suit cuz they look
somewhat like frogs I guess.</span></p>

in the very northwest the Brabantish "vörs"-massive collides with a
(younger?) "puit"-front tho (Antw. city
also "peut"), which is used in western North Brabant (in the Netherlands) as well, and IIRC also the normal
word in East Flanders so it probably expanded from there over the Scheldt river.</span></p>
