Translation of Pet

The Finnish word for pet is "lemmikki" which comes from the old word "lempi" and means "favourite/favoured/beloved one". The long form is "lemmikkieläin" which means "favourite/favoured/beloved animal".

In Chinese they are called "beloved animals."
...but sometimes we just call them "masters". Especially cats.

mascota >.<

The Brazillian part really is true

This made me forget what care was in Tagalog but then I remembered it was alaga lmao

What is the mosquito doing here?

@Mingolfssonjr
"We share our life and home with them".
:P

In Sweden if you directly translate "pet", it'll be "house animal"

@NENEPAPAWINECHUDAI Sällskapsdjur = Companion animal or do you have another name for pats I don't know about?

@Jem sorry i replied this late lol, but there is actually. Sällskapsdjur is a old Swedish word, nowadays we use "husdjur" which is as i typed, house pet

glad to know that loving animals is a universal language :smile:

I think this comic should be tagged as the countries the pets names are from

like Brazil, Scandinavia, Spain, Hungary, Israel, France and, Philippines

like how Ladybug Around the World has the country names tagged
