Слово: lup
Грамматика: n.
Значение: large grey leech whose larvae infest puddles and drinking holes, whence they enter the nostrils and sinuses of cattle where they mature
Комментарии: when fullgrown and glutted they abandon their roost through the nostrils of the drinking cow to re-enter the water and multiply; the lup can be lured out of its bovine host by splashing water up the cow's nose and grabbing the hydrophilic lup as it gropes downward with its posterior extremity; the lup seldom infests humans, but can then be extracted following the same procedure; cf. lakphɛʔl.
