It's the Dutch word for Jaw. Because you put the herrings into the barrels after removing their jaws.

The Dutch word for Jaw is the best word for Jaw. :prof:

mmmh, it's weird that Kaak in the best languages means jaws
when that sounds exactly the same as cack, the residue of what has gone through the jaws as delivered from the other end of the machine in the easiest language of all

The French caque is the name of barrels used to store herrings. The saying says "A herring barrel will always smell of herrings". The meaning is that if you grow up in a lower-class environment, you will always be recognizable as such no matter what you try to do. You will never be accepted by higher society because some of your learned lower-class behaviour, you cannot get rid of.
Like why certain layers of british society can't stand meghan because she's coloured and not from the proper circles?

Just a regular uniform, really, nothing unusual. Most of these girls went on for university degrees.
