We have over the years found some interesting differences in the language of farming in different parts of the country and world. Some are colloquial, some are related to methods, some are just language that has developed in longstanding farm families. Here's my first question:
If you raise bovines, what do you call them? Are they cattle or cows? Do you call them ladies (my grandfather called his cows the ladies) or, like us, the girls. When they make you angry, do you resort to 'blue' language, or are you more creative in a suitable for the family hour way?
