in portuguese, i just came across “por que o vírus da gripe não tem amigos? porque ele é uma má influenza”

translation: “why does the flu virus have no friends? because it’s a bad influenza!”(Influence)

i think it could work in english but sounds better in portuguese.

    Similarly, Swedish has

    • ”Farfar, får får får?” (Grandpa, do sheep have sheep?)
    • ”Nej, får får inte får, får får lamm”. (No, sheep don’t have sheep, sheep have lambs)
