    Serious now. In dutch there is a difference between a dromedaris (having one lump) and a kameel (having two lumps). Is there no such difference in the English language?

    Sure the Inuit have maybe 50 different words for snow, but why should we Belgians and Dutch have a better lingual system to differentiate (real word?) between a certain sort of animal than the Anglo-Saksons?
