i was having a talk with my father the other day about animals, and as it turns out one reason he had many misconspections is the following: The Armenian word of Tortoise and Turtle are the same...ergo he didn't seem to know there was a difference. I asked him about words for others such Crocodile and Alligator, he again seemed only to find one. And i've been thinking, words like "Gabeeg" i know means "monkey" but what is the word for "ape"?
"Voznee" means hedgehog, so what is porcupine? (english transliterations are odd)
i'm not accusing Armenian of being a clumsly language, i'm just curious
