anjovis
Finnish
Etymology
Most likely from German Anchosen, a term for pickling and canning sprats.[1]
Noun
anjovis
- pickled sprat
- sprat (any various small marine fish)
Usage notes
The word anjovis is a false friend of anchovy, which is sardelli in Finnish. However anjovis is often erroneously used to refer to Engraulis encrasicolus.
