Someone unrelated I once wrote a story about a train driver in Europe in the fact they have to be multi lingual. Well said train driver wasn't in his native land and when he saw a deer by the tracks he didn't know the proper word to tell the dispatch in the native language so he ended up saying there was a cow with a pantagraph on its head.
