minus-squareBOMBS@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 years agoyeah, but mosca is femenine while mosquito is masculine. a small mosca would be a mosquita. a large mosquito would be a mosco. an even larger mosco would a moscon. and even even larger moscon would be a mosconaso.
minus-squarebrianorca@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 years agoBut it’s only the female mosquito which is bothersome. We should probably have called them mosquita.
minus-squarekapx132@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·2 years agoWell, now i know what mutant my rpg party will be fighting. “el mosconaso the destroyer of swamps”
minus-squareBOMBS@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 years agoIf someone told me there was a mosconaso outside, I’d seriously be concerned 😱 😆
