It actually is, at least in Germany you can buy pregnany tests of a brand called “Maybe-bayby”.

Instead of pedant maybe we can say (and I don’t actually mean this as an insult)… picky pricky?

Despite what happens in movies, defibrillators are used to stop arrhythmia and don’t jump start hearts back up. Arhythmia is when the timing/pace is out of sync, which is also known as timing retardation. Although we usually use that term for engines, it’s essentially the exact same thing.

To non-Americans they’re already “roundabouts”, which is close enough already really

It comes from WWII soldier slang, so it’s more like if US soldiers named everything.

But there had to be one guy that started it, unless they were all linked in a vulcan mind meld

Although a group of hippos is a ‘bloat’, hippos don’t float. Surely a floatie bloatie is a life vest!

What I took away from this is that we urgently need to find the person in question and let them name everything. Alternatively the person who came up with the names in the post.

The German language is known for having many compound nouns.

Another point: why when shortened do they call them “walkies”? “You got your walkie on?” That’s the less description-of-use part of the name
