Welcome to this bilingual (Swedish-English) group blog by family members living on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, "the pond". Our interests range from the scientific to the eclectic, including gourmet food, horses, art and literature, computers, species in nature, history and iron, and photography. Three generations are posting here.
Suggested by a reader of Svenska Dagbladets "lexicala luckor":
Fiskmåsa - komma in på ett möte, skrika, sprida massa papper och sedan snabbt dra.
Seagull (verb): To enter a meeting, yell, spread a lot of papers and then quickly leave.
Anyone else who recognize that behavior?
/O.K.

HAHA! That is so funny! Sea-gulling... Usually they don't really yell though, only talk loud, don't listen to anybody, and are pompous self-important persons that don't need others opinions or advice. It is a perfect word!
