Xuande: I'm an American currently in Denmark studying Danish, and while working on vocabulary I noticed that the Danish word for a cuckoo (bird) is "gøg." My mnemonic for remembering it is that I'm cuckoo for GOG.
It doesn't have the same meaning as the English adjective "cuckoo." It just refers to the bird.
Well, I think I've been called up to this thread as my last name comes from the cuckoo bird ;)It doesn't have the same meaning as the English adjective "cuckoo." It just refers to the bird.
