minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish8•23 days agoHattara. It doesn’t directly translate into anything. Sort of connotates the flimsiness of the product, but much else. Hattara sounds like it could be an iron age god tbh. Oh, oh. I wasn’t too wrong. Hattara is a Finnish mythical being. https://fi.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hattara_(mytologia) In French, the word “hattara” means father’s beard, and in Greek, the word “hattara” means old women’s hair. I love etymology but Finnish ones aren’t as easy to figure out as English / other PIE languages
