I'm old enough to remember "kanelbulle". We used it in the late 90's and early 00's. I haven't heard it in a long time now. Also we say "trunk a", there's no elephant in there. (just to clarify)

    I could just imagine a person all serious in Greece saying: You forgot to add a few ducklings in your report.

    Wtf?? As far as I know we call it 'monkey a', because it looks like it has a monkey's tail.

    We call it "Кльомба", which is pronounced like... I'm not even sure how to write an english equivalent of the word.

    Why spoiling jokes, even if they are a bit weird?
