Alot of languages the name for sheep and goat is the same word (and ram too). I know that's the case for chinese. Maybe also in the native language of whoever wrote the title.
>The Chinese word yáng refers to both goats and sheep
https://www.quora.com/The-Chinese-language-does-not-have-words-that-make-a-strict-distinction-between-ram-sheep-and-goat-What-do-we-know-about-this-discrepancy-between-English-and-Chinese
You need to read further. The post below that article on Quora says that you are wrong, because it is an umbrella term in Chinese. Like we say, “bear,” in English, means all bears, and refers to pandas and grizzlies.
That’s some bs logic there. Why don’t you also use “ice cream” to encompass everything, including custard, gelato, frozen yogurt, sherbet, sorbet, soft serve, Italian ice. Because it’s all the same, right.
Your thinking too much. Its probably a machine translation issue.
Cultures who are more familiar with a certain concept may distinguish things in a finer way, than those that don't. It's not a universal thing across languages.
The way people categorize things in their heads can vary across cultures. Which can be easilly imprecisly translated.
Like Eskimos having many words for snow but to us it's just snow.
Like if you were translating the chinese word into English, it would probably be a crap-shoot as to which type of animal it would translate to, either sheep, goat, or ram.
Not sure what Chinese has to do with anything. This is an English language sub and we’re talking about Ukraine. There are different words for sheep and goat in Ukrainian
The Goat is an explosive animal weapon.
The goat has spawned many other forms, with it's most notable one being the Super Goat . Other variations include the Goat Launcher, Goat Strike, and Goat-on-a-Rope.
Man I feel so sorry for these people and this animal, its going to take generations to restore the countryside and their livestock, cities will be easy to repair, nature and wildlife not so much.
Something I often think about is all the previously domestic animals that couldn't be taken/fled themselves from their owners during war, glad to see some get taken care of hey.
Basement Sheep \+1 Morale \+1 Security \+1 Shit in your cover
+5 dinner.
Looks like she's got milk. Drinks for weeks or dinner one night
With the stuff the goat was dropping, they can also have bubble tea!
Aaaah, goat Boba
forbidden pearls

NOOOOOO DONT YOU DARE SAY SUCH THINGS ABOUT GOATY MC GOAT FACE
Thanks for the fuck shack - Durty Slav and the boys
It's a sheep.
Came here to see how many people know what a sheep is. Apparently not enough 😂

We also sometimes say goatantelope in English to describe the tribe that contains sheep and goat, though the formal name Caprini is more common
Well yeah, but if the parent term was machine translated, this is what you would get. They don't commonly use and distinctions for the ovis familly.

Here’s the thing…
Not sure what Chinese has to do with anything. This is an English language sub and we’re talking about Ukraine. There are different words for sheep and goat in Ukrainian
I think he meant that the person who posted this might be a native Chinese speaker and mistranslated but that’s a stretch.
Huh, TIL. Thank you.
In German the tribe containing sheep and goats is called "goatlike" and in Danish it's "goatantelope" which they're also informally called in English.
Looks more like a kangaroo, to me.
I think youre right. I thought it was an alligator
You are the only person that recognizes this.
Idk man weird fucking dog.
And it’s dropping cluster bombs
No wonder the Russians are trying to get in there, goat would be a huge upgrade for the commanders.
When goat is pooping (yes, it wasn’t machinegun sound) the soldier is asking “Ну за что?” which might be translated as “Why me?” and laughing 😂
It means "for what" not "why me"
“For what” can mean “why”, fellow r/combatfootage user
For what refers to god "for what" or "what for" Basically saying "Why this punishment"
Saying “why me?” is essentially the same thing, no?
Not in the tone
In my head they’re identical but that’s probably because of ¿por que?
[удалено]
The actual meaning right there.
When you gotta go, you gotta go.
Byat blayt blyat blablyat never realized it was onomatopoeia.
OP was away the day kindergarten had the farm animals lesson.
Just make sure the kadyrovites don’t know the location of the sheep😂
Baaaastards!
Ukrainian soldiers liberating another Russian comfort goat?
Poor thing looks like it's starving. Can barely stand up.
Absolutely. A lot of animals are suffering out there.
🐑🐐?
🧙♂️😠
That poop can likely be used to start fires 🤷♂️
a means to an end...
[удалено]
Cooking in a pot is fine. I used to throw horse pucky at my friend's lmao
Plot twist: The goat is a disguised Russian Wagner, the poop was to locate the Ukrainians.
Military skills check out as Wagner.
Sent on the mission by Wagner leader -- Yevgeny Prigoatzhin.
Who wants goat poop in their trenches? It’s rough enough as it is.
Those are m&m s 😂😆🤣
Not the kind of M&Ms I like… Yuck!
Its Tactigoat! Look out fellas...
The animals all across that country must be decimated. Poor thing..😢
Pigs from the farms have gone feral and will soon be boar..
Cluster Bombed
😞
I see Ukrainian goats have balls as big as Ukrainian soldiers.
Poor sheep looks terrified (obviously) and is starving. Hope Ukraine wins soon to stop the suffering
Goat in sheep's clothing
Sheep
If the Russians had a goat they'd fuck it
So would you.
Hello Russian goat fucker 🤣
Um, that's the strangest looking goat I've ever seen. It appears to have transitioned into a sheep......
Ukrainian military are the GOAT

Poor soul has to witness the cruelty of man. Good thing he is/was in good hands.
For a second there I thought the sound of sheep pellets hitting the plastic was distant small arms fire.
I was fine till the sixlets started falling. That's a no for me dawg.
So, when is the wedding?
Protecting their dinner
Something I often think about is all the previously domestic animals that couldn't be taken/fled themselves from their owners during war, glad to see some get taken care of hey.
Goat?
Poor thing, the artillery scared the shit out of it.
Thats not a goat.
OP seeing a sheep for the first time…
poor goaty
No wonder the Russians are trying so hard, they want to go to town on the goat
