WotD: thongs; flip flops

[muckefuck]

1. die Badelatschen, die Flip-flops
2. de teenslippers
3. las chancletas
4. les xancletes
5. les tongs
6. y fflip-fflops
8. japonki
9. 고무 슬리퍼
10. 人字拖 rénzìtuō

Notes: It's strange for me to read online that "thongs" is considered a specifically Australian usage, since that is all my family called them when I was growing up. (References to thong underwear baffled me well into my early twenties.)

Oh, and I think it's always fun when CJK refer to things as "shaped like character X", as in this example, or as in "cross" ('10'-shaped frame)/"crossroads" ('10'-shaped road).
