http://wordie.org/words/croupier Comments for the word 'Croupier' http://wordie.org http://wordie.org/words/croupier#comments I used to be a croup. I have too many past lives :-( Wed, 30 Jul 2008 04:43:03 +0000 http://wordie.org/words/croupier#comments http://wordie.org/words/croupier#comments In Latvian, we use a transliterated form of this word: krupjē. For a long time I believed that what it meant was a <a href="/words/toad">toad</a>, because of its striking similarity to the Latvian word for this amphibian krupis. I only got the meaning right when I turned about twelve :/ Wed, 30 Jul 2008 03:32:03 +0000 http://wordie.org/words/croupier#comments
