          Let me blow your mind: Danes don’t use a sponge for washing up. They would consider it very unhygienic and the traditional Anglo-Saxon washing up sponge as something you’d use to clean the toilet with.

          Instead they use a brush on a sort of angled stick.

        Im sorry to correct you, but beaked beast translates to næbdyr, which is a creature of itself… typically accompanied by two creative boys, with oddly shaped heads, called phineas ans ferb.

        The translation of fjerkræ is probably closer to feathered beast
