I don't know whether it's a urban legend, but apparently Icelandic has a hundred or so names for snow. We have many specific words for what is important for our survival. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ•๐ŸคŒ

Here in Sweden the rumor says that its the Inuits who have 100 words for snow.

Fun info about that for meme aficionados: that expression and its various clones are the basis for the general concept of those reusable templates called "snowclones".

But if Italians have 100 words for spaghett, did somebody touch mine?

Here in Australia the rumor is that snow is made up by other countries to flex on us!

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah but you also have to turn your monitors upside down to read and are constantly living with spiders in your ears.

And snakes in their toilets.

I made love to an Inuit lady once and after she had a thousand words for disappointment.

[-] Pringles@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Same with Inuit. I guess it makes sense when snow is such a dominant part of your life.
