fjonk Explanation: https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https://image.spreadshi... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2022-09-07 17:35:01 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Also found this: “ Filifjonkan – The Filyjonk The Filyjonk is a fussy, neurotic creature who spends most of her time cleaning and fearing catastrophes. While the original name Filifjonkan has no direct semantic meaning in Standard Swedish, the second part of the name, fjonka, is phonetically reminiscent of words such as fjolla, fjompa (‘silly woman’), and fjanta (‘to behave in a silly or overbearing manner’) (Bertills 2003: 75). While these connotations are befitting the character’s personality, the name is only suggestive, as the phonetic likeness to fjolla and fjompa is quite indirect.” https://pure.rug.nl/ws/portalfiles/portal/74491023/Multiling... |
