No, I heard that from a Pennsylvania Dutch adult. (It translates literally into German.) I just like language peculiarities.

It's cute.
Well, this is funny! We have lots of animals because we live on a ranch. My kids are fairly familiar with reproduction since they witness so much of it. The first time our dog went into season, my littlest was only 5. It was a bit much to explain, so, to make it simple, I just said, "that's how dogs marry." There was a frustrated German Shepperd, named Rocky, hanging around. He couldn't get into the fenced area where our dog was. A little Chiquaqua had learned how to climb fences, and thus became the alpha male. This poor German Shepperd just watched from behind fence in envy I guess. One day my daughter was moping about being bored. So, I said, "Why don't you go outside?" She replied, "I can't! Every time I go outside Rocky tries to marry my leg!" LOL!
