Because of superstitious or animistic imaginations they replace the proper names of the mentioned animals during the hunt, but also in every day life, especially in women's language. Such designations are motivated by specific external characteristics, behaviour and utility. Sometimes the taboo is avoided by using either the names of other animals or foreign names for squirrels.}, url = {https://doi.org/10.13173/zeitdeutmorggese.164.3.0687} doi = {10.13173/zeitdeutmorggese.164.3.0687} }
