rolig commented on the word pti�?
For some reason, Slovene tends to prefer pti�?, the masculine form for "bird", to the feminine ptica, which is more common in other Slavic languages, though this latter form is also used. Perhaps, this is because the German word, Vogel, is masculine (and German was the dominant language in Slovene territory for nearly a thousand years). Neither pti�? nor ptica, by the way, refers specifically to the male or female bird; they are both acceptable as the generic word for "bird".

Thanks, rolig. Good to know. I believe I also listed ptica.

And colloquially, people tend to drop the initial "p", making ti�?, which is also the common slang word for "penis", roughtly equivalent in usage to the English "dick".
