Even in English there is controversy about what a swede is. In the north we call them turnips, and in the south they're swedes. Southerners think turnips are cattle feed.


Nope, I don't like turnip... but I've had my fair share of swede.

I think they are different plants.

So, what is a Swede in sweedish... but then what is a turkey called in Turkey... or grease in Greece... or damn... forgotten now :-(
