There's also the fact that in Finnish it's properly ihmissyöjä (personeater or some such). Kannibaali is quite used loan word but we do have our own.

Same thing in polish. We have "ludożerca" (peopleeater) but loan word "kanibal" is used too.

ihmissyöjä sounds suspiciously like "i miss you" 🤔

[–] Kostyeah@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

It's the same in Russian. "Людоед" which is literally "people-eater" is the more common word.
