@caitlinrgreen Rather they are called the outsiders because it is thought that calling them by name will make ones tongue dirty.
@Umarkarim89 Really? How intriguing...! Odd thing is, pigs are really clever and clean when they get the chance to be, or so I'm told...
@caitlinrgreen well in our culture it is said they eat their waste & thus had been deemed bad. For agriculturists also as they destroy crops
@Umarkarim89 Really quite fascinating how different cultures treat things so differently. OTOH, tho', the destructiveness of wild boar >
@Umarkarim89 > is frequently mentioned in medieval Welsh and Irish material, so common thread there!
@caitlinrgreen u r right for there its kind of a normal thing. Hr if u hv to tease someone who was abroad u ask him have u eaten pork thr:D
@Umarkarim89 ah, ok---interesting to know, thanks! :)
@caitlinrgreen haha so I am kind of teasing my sister now with this as she is leaving on Monday, although she is kind of vegetarian :)
@caitlinrgreen @SurreyMedieval hehe our University is in kind of wilderness so in winter nights u might encounter them and they r quite big
@caitlinrgreen @SurreyMedieval interestingly as u know in Muslim culture pigs r not liked at all and even they are not directly called pigs
