"Cat" is a word borrowed from Nubish, as that is whence came the housecat, even though alike deer have lived in Europe (inholding Britain) for a long time. What could we chell "cats" in Anglish? The websteads I wonly go to to find words yive me nothing.
Are ya ready kids?

*Ordly words num from the Anglish Moot and went by me to be better in song. Also, I'm not fully sooth "box" is Anglish, as it was only borrowed from Latin into Or-West-Germanish and not the earliest Or-Germanish.
I dreamt that I was browsing Wiktionary, and it told me that "seed" was a leanword from French and that the inborn English word would be "sing" instead. When I woke up I was aghast that I had been brooking it this whole time and was about to rush to aright the leaf for Ruddy Sparrow on the Anglish Moot unten I mimmered.
Pure English: I am looking for a seed for the Big Lifeheaps setting mid big erds of Northwealds, Old Growth Northwealds, Snowy Northwealds, Snowmoors and Frozen Sea next to each other and at least somewhat near to the starting ord, lieverly with a thorpe near there too; does anyone know of any? I already seeched this underreddit (let me know if I missed anything) and Google and didn't find what I was looking for; Google MK latterly foreset a good one but as the world yot forrotten and I threeshed it I don't umbethink what it was, and would like a sundry one anyway.
Standard English: I am looking for a seed for the Large Biomes setting with large regions of Taiga, Old Growth Taiga, Snowy Taiga, Snowy Plains and Frozen Ocean next to each other and at least somewhat close to the spawnpoint, preferrably with a village near there too; does anyone know of any? I already searched this subreddit (let me know if I missed anything) and Google, but didn't find anything; Google AI previously suggested a good one but as the world got corrupted and I deleted it I don't remember what it was, and would like a different one anyway.
Following on from my earlier writ about Nordmannish words, what are some oft-noted words in English that come from other Germankinly tungs like Dutch or German, and therefore might misleadingly soam like inborn words even to someone who is good at spotting French words?
I just noticed this on my last trip to the supermarket (in the US); the four cheese stuffed crust pizza and pepperoni stuffed crust pizza both say that they're made in Canada in the fine print but the latter displays it prominently on the front of the box too. Since I assume pizzas made in Canada don't carry any extra prestige over domestic ones, are they required to put clear labeling on the box of meat pizzas under some sort of agricultural law?
Whilst many words from Norman French either fully edstew the lutter English word, like "use" instead of "note", or bestand in a sundry stale alongside the ordly word like "freedom" and "liberty", there soothly must have been others that trucked to edstow the inborn word and are no longer noted. Does anybody know of any?
Does anybody know if Milwaukee’s Best Ice in tallboy cans is available in the Bluffton area or Hilton Head? I’ve checked a couple of gas stations and the local beer store and they didn’t have it.
These are the most often noted Nordmannish words that I overset so far; am I missing any others? (I mean sheer ones; no need to write every seldseen word or words for eltheedy begripes like "walrus" that don't need oversetting).
Anwarded - thanks DrkvnKavod. Feel free to foreset arightings to the staffcraft.
This is the computer that I am thinking of buying if my replacement Lenovo Legion 7 currently being shipped also turns out to be defective (something that I will be pleasantly surprised to not have happen at this point based on the number of other people who have reported getting multiple duds), however it is a full day of driving to the nearest Microcenter and back and I will be royally cross if I go all that way to come back empty handed due to false stock information. How does the reservation process work, and is it very reliable? Will an employee actually go and verify that they have the item (includng making sure it’s this exact model) and send a message when they’ve done that, or will the website just automatically tell me it’s held if the online stock count says they have it, correct or not?
As the head says, which of the ewes or marks of Mean English speechcraft were faid, adone or wrixled owing to other tungs? I know that saws like "I had done something" (from French) are a showing of this but there must be others. I also heard that the loss of speechcraftly kin and fall and of the staves eth and thorn had nothing to do with sway from French or any other tung (and therefore don't need to be arighted) but I could be wrong.
I managed to get the Memorial Day sale price locked in for a few more days via a quote after I explained to a sales representative that I would have bought the computer immediately except for delays in moving money between bank accounts. However, I also got an email with another $100 off coupon code, with the caveat that "coupons will be voided when using a Quote.". What should I do when placing the order? Is there any way to use the coupon code with this order without causing the locked-in price to disappear? Also, for anybody who already owns the Legion Pro 7, what are the biggest drawbacks?
In 1979, a British man who was into cars visited the US and decided to photograph the oldest cars he encountered on the trip; the vast majority of these were not restored classics but patinaed daily-driven survivors or abandoned cars. I seem to recall an abandoned late-50s Oldsmobile and a car from 1951 that was the oldest he encountered still in daily commuting use. Then he uploaded them to Flickr with commentary accompanying the pictures. Does anybody happen to know what I'm talking about?
Let's say Person A stupidly decants windshield cleaning fluid into an old vodka bottle without relabeling it and stores it in the trunk of their car. They then leave the country (USA) for multiple months and leave the car at Person B's house. Person C is an eager beaver who likes to rummage through other people's stuff without their permission, and they notice the bottle and put it in Person B's liquor cabinet thinking it's liquor, without saying a word to anybody. Then, at a Christmas party without Person A or C in attendance, and where Person B has no idea where the bottle came from, Person D pours themselves a glass of the "vodka" and gets seriously ill or dies from methanol poisoning. Who would be liable?
(If this seems oddly specific, yes, the beginning of the story did really happen, though in real life I was thankfully there to catch the deadly mixup before anyone drank it).
Does anybody know of any free sources for transmission gear ratios and horsepower and torque outputs at specific RPMs for both engines in the 1973 Delta 88 and preferrably earlier years of that model too? It used to be on Automobile-Catalog and whilst I can pay $5 for a months' subscription if I really need to I'd rather not support people who make previously free information paywalled. Also, and I know this data will be harder to obtain, but I am still curious about the following figures too:
Net power output of the 1973 small-block V8 when the factory two-barrel is swapped for a decent aftermarket four-barrel
Net power outputs of the 350 and 455 V8s in the 1970 Delta, factory stock, if anybody has those figures as tested instead of just extrapolated from gross horsepower
