Good morning, Lillikoi and everyone :)

AP is correct, skilpadde is the Norwegian word for turtle. Skilpadde is glad she has managed to teach some of you the most important word in her language :mrgreen:

AP wonders how one pronounces Skilpadde.

Skilpadde can tell her that it's pronounced kinda like this:

shill-pahdd-e

As is typical in Norwegian, 'ski' is pronounced like 'she', the 'a' is pronounced like the 'a' in father, and the 'e' like the 'e' in shell.

AP thinks that's very interesting. She always pronounced it in her head as "skill-pad", but now she knows how to really pronounce it.

LOL. What does Lillikoi think about the dolphins and the whale insults, Data wonders. :)

The Great Dolphin does not speak Earth whale. They are a magic being, ruler of the land of Graphea. They merely assume the form of a bottlenose dolphin. :jester:

Deep Hour is non-committal, as has been known to be the case.

So does IstominFan! She thinks this thread is fun!

Why does IstominFan have a curious thing for Spanish and Russian tennis players?
