    So what’s a group of 11 cows or less called?

    I always heard it was a herd (including less than 12)—never knew it was a flink, & I was raised on a dairy farm.

    According to word-detective.com, flink is a mountweazel invented in 2002, a mountweazel being a made-up word created to trap plagiarists. http://www.word-detective.com/2011/03/flink/ The question appeared on word-detective after someone found the flink being 12 or more cows as Real Fact #752 under a Snapple cap and requested more information.

    My online dictionary thinks flink is only a video game, but in german it translates as speedily.

    If an octopus loses a tentacle, is it now called a heptapus?
