Sorry, i meant "rice grain". It's Reiskorn in german, the Korn being the grain. One of the same word, different meaning pitfalls. Corrected it.

Oh, that’s interesting! I’m not very familiar with German, thanks for sharing!

Corn is the same word in English, it's falling out of use though because of American sweetcorn which is named "corn" because it has so many corns and they are so large
