    I had to scroll back in my saved posts to a million years ago to resurrect this.

      Thanks for surfacing this one, it’s always fun to get the older perspective and realising they’re very human.

      That metaphor (breasts as fruit) transcends language though. Whatever you call fruits you’ll end up calling breasts. Here’s the song of Solomon which was semetic.

      I said, ‘I will go up to the palm tree; I will take hold of the boughs thereof.’ Now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose like apples.

        You’re probably gonna want the Meathook/Cobra galaxy.

    In German and Dutch it’s way worse: “Säugetier” and “zoogdier”. Both can roughly be translated to “sucking animals”. I was taught in school that it’s called that because babies suck on the mother’s breasts to be fed and this is a unique trait to mammals. So in conclusion, we all suck.

    source
    • Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      in swedish it’s basically that except we say “nursing animals”, which is more specific

    Ackshully, “galaxy” (or rather, “galaxias”) means “Milky Way” already, it’s just a translation. It was less ambiguous when the only galaxy we could see was the Milky lights that covered a lot of our sky.

    Of course, we realize there’s more than one galaxy now, so the meanings have diverged.

    source
    • shalafi@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      And we didn’t realize there was more than one galaxy until the 1920s (I think?)

    I mean… I think we can all agree that boobs are at least universally non-threatening, even without counting the symbolisms of nourishment, nurturance, life, fertility, etc. At least I don’t think we’re at the point where hiding machine guns or hellish snakes in boobs is viable. … Right?

    It was either that or a name based on weird details of skull morphology.

    synapsids have a single temporal fenestra, an opening low in the skull roof behind each eye socket, leaving a bony arch beneath each; this accounts for the name “synapsid”

    I finally understand why galactose (greek word for milk) is a component of lactose (latin word for milk). It’s milk all the way down.

    source
  • Kitathalla@lemy.lol ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    In the defense of the ancients who were naming things like other things they sort of looked like… what OTHER substance was around at that time that was both white and liquid?

    …

    Because maybe we should be grateful for the milk metaphor instead of the option that only nuts would choose…

      Yeah this isn’t a universal human thing like the post suggests, it’s just that terms like “mammal” and “galaxy” are rooted in Europe.

      Folks? There are people outside of Europe, and they have different opinions on stuff!

  • 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I mean, point me to a milk producing animal of another class without stretching some definitions a bit.

    source
    • Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      i mean i’m not sure what definition you by, to me the most sensible definition would be “a nutritious liquid produced by the parent to feed the child in its infancy”, for which there’s actually quite a few other classes that qualify. Many birds have crop milk which is exactly what it sounds like, and apparently some jumping spiders secrete milk from the same place as the eggs come out.

      I suppose you could argue that milk must be modified sweat, but that feels very much like actively narrowing it down to only count mammals. It’s not like there’s anything inherent to how our milk is produced, all that matters is that it’s a nutritious liquid.
