moha moha

الإنجليزية - الإنجليزية

تعريف moha moha في الإنجليزية الإنجليزية القاموس.

A type of sea creature reported seen by a Miss Lovell and others at Sandy Cape in South-East Queensland, Australia on 8 Jun 1890. She described it as some 30 feet long with a turtle-like neck extending from a rounded body some 8 feet across, and a long fish-like tail. Never seen again, and improbabilities in the description suggest a hoax

1891: The blacks, who had not seen it the day I did, named it at once from my sketch, which must, therefore, be pretty accurate, and called it 'Moha, Moha', and laughed and said, 'Saucy Fellow, Meebee' – in English, 'dangerous turtle'. — S. Lovell, Land and Water, 25 April 1891 (again Malcolm Smith from Heuvelmans etc).
