LOL  :D

Even funnier if his son had shouted "duck" and he'd said "no son, it's a goose" and still got hit  ;D  ;D

Actually, I don't know... I'm not swedish. ;D
I'm Dutch.

In Dutch 'duck' (as in quack-duck) is called an 'eend'.
And 'duck' (as in 'duck-or-else-you-get-hit') is called 'duik'.

[OFF TOPIC]
There is one synonym in Dutch which is a synonym in English too.

Saw.

We saw you.
We saw this piece of wood.

Wij zagen you.
Wij zagen dit stukje hout.


This is the only one I know of. :P

It had to be in Sweden, didn't it?  ;D

Well, i'm not sure about swedish eithe,r but in norwegian (which is quite similar) the two duck's don't sound anything like eachother
Duck (as in the bird) = and
Duck (as in "get down") = dukk  ::)

Guess who Anders And is.

Yep, Donald Duck.

Given these knowledge you may calculate how Donald Duck is called in Dutch. ;)

I tell you later. :)

I saw an Anders And once. I know of it as the Danish version of Donald Duck. It was nice to see one, but it was a pity that I couldn't read it  >:(
