Anyone have any Scandinavian dictionaries for 'PUSLE' 'SAMLE' 'legetoj' ?


I don't think it's Lego, at a guess they've misunderstood "legetoj" to be
"lego toy", actually I think it means "played" or something similar (it's
Danish).  "Samle" is collect or assemble.  "Pusle" has me beat, Tank perhaps?

I know very little Danish so I'm not 100% on those translations.

(...) "Legetøy" simply means "toy". "Samle" means "collect" and "pusle" means something like "tinker" or "puzzle". But not "puzzle" in the sense of being confused, more like creatively solving a problem. Fredrik (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.au)
