Love finding out how other languages say hippopotamus! Seacow and river horse make a little more sense than hippopotamus but it’s a fun word to say. #hippoappreciationclub nostr:note18pvl7gxyl58dygnavpl3ska5u3w84nhjdr2ggkhdxuyrym42r8kq4l6hal 

  from ἵππος (híppos, “horse”) (English hippo-) + ποταμός (potamós, “river”).
