Let's stay in the kitchen for a while. Last week we had the knackwurst, this week we're looking at an important kitchen utensil - the colander. Both Russians and Poles use the German term Durchschlag. In both cases, the "kh" sound of "Durch" has disappeared and the word is pronounced "durshlag" instead of "durkhshlag." In Polish, the spelling is durszlag.
Apologies to my colleague Steffen Heieck - I forgot to mention last week that it was he who told me about nakki.
