Just call 'em seaturtles and landturtles like other Germanic languages. Then you can just ask them how they identify and throw them wherever is best suited.

The Hungarian word for turtles (both land and sea one) translates to "frog with a bathtub"

Hungary is a silly place. The bathtub is upside down then.

Actually.. not bathtub, more like trough.

Still upside down. But imagine you had to carry a trough on your back. Which way would you turn it?
