I think English does have not one, but several, dedicated words. The English Wikipedia mentions stuffed toy, stuffie, plush toy, soft toy, and cuddly toy. Of the languages I understand, English is the only language in which the word for stuffed animal explicitly includes its stuffedness. Other languages use words based on its purpose (cuddling/hugging), or its composition (fabric). -- Arnt Richard Johansen http://arj.nvg.org/ Please Note: Some Quantum Physics Theories Suggest That When the Consumer Is Not Directly Observing This Product, It May Cease to Exist or Will Exist Only in a Vague and Undetermined State. --Susan Hewitt and Edward Subitzky
