In the Dutch translation there is not even an 'ass' but a 'beast of
burden'... no gender specified.
Het = The (no gender)
domme = could mean 'mute' or 'stupid'
lastdier = beast of burden. last = cargo dier = animal
It spoke with a 'mensenstem', a human voice.
I wonder what did Peter REALY wrote?
==================BTW
I knew the expression "PITA" with ASS (from American movies?).
Did not know there is ASS and ARSE.
Arse = aars (Dutch) = Arsch (german)
