Fruit, isn't that pretty good?! In Swedish fruit is "frukt" and the word horrible is "fruktansvärt". Do you get it? Frukt-ansvärt!! Does it make any sense? Where does this word come from?? Were the stone age people afraid of fruits?
We Swedes have such incredible imagination. Just look at the Swedish word "grönsak", which means vegetable or litterary it means "green thing". Varnings! That word is too much like the Norweigans (Swedes always make jokes about the Norweigans). For example Swedes like to make jokes that the word for banana in Norweigan is "gule böj" which means "yellow bend". I wonder what the person who came up with the word grönsak was thinking. Like: " Hmm, I found a green thing, I'll call it green thing from now on!!! Note: Even if it is a red tomato, it's still a green thing!!!
