when i type "hai", a dolphin emoji pops up and my phone's autocorrect switches to other languages sometimes. in what language is "hai" related to dolphins?
it also autocorrects to german despite the fact that i don't speak it, but i don't believe hai is german for dolphin??
Phone's haunted.
Also... Google translate says hai is German for shark. So there's that.
It is also Finnish for shark.
ETA: it also is Estonian, and Norwegian for shark.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/hai
„Hai“ is a shark in German.
At least in Chinese it's 海豚 (haitun).
so it's just wants to go where it was made and swim with the dolphins.
In Dutch, the word is "haai" for shark.
It's the same in Afrikaans. But there's a 60% overlap in the vocabulary there, so it makes sense.
1 less “a” for the German Shark: “Hai”
(As already mentioned in another comment)
Dolphins are famous for their friendly greetings, and make over 4.1 billion dollars a year in the greeting card industry.
