Subject: Help needed
On 28 September Roger contributed a note about "Ahorn". I spent Summer 1962
in a small village in Germany where I had nothing to read except Walt
Disney
comic books. The characters, of course, mostly had different names from the
ones I knew. There were two chipmunks called "Ahörnchen" and "Behörnchen".
Was Donald Duck "Kalle Anke"? I wonder what names the main Disney
characters
acquired in other Lowlands languages.
BTW, the ordinary French pronunciation of "Walt Disney" seems to be "Val
d'Isné", which sounds like a ski resort.
