It’s worthy of note that Láadan uses the same word for the animal and for its meat. The split in English (cow/beef; chicken/poultry; pig/pork) stems from the domination of the Anglo-Saxons by the francophone Normans; the Anglo-Saxon words became the farmyard standard (since the peasants raised the animals), while the French-influenced words became the standard for the table (since it was the nobles who ate the meat).^[15].
