Names in different languages[edit]

To assist google search in var languages.

Polish: 'Trzepak' (carpet beater: trzepaczka), from the verb 'trzepac': to beat, slap, etc., with the purpose to shake the thing violently, eg to dust off in carpet beating, or tear some soft thing into shreds (e.g. wind can do this to a flag), or to separate flax into fibers and straw (scutching), etc. I don't know a perfect synonym to this word in English.
Czech: 'Klepadlo' ("knocker"), means both carpet hanger ('klepadlo na koberce') and door knocker
German: 'Teppichstange' (carpet stand), 'Klopfstange' (beat stand)
Lithuanian: kilimų stovas (kilimų dulkinimo stovas, carpet beating stand) - "best playground" (Geriausia vaikystės žaidimų aikštelė. :-) - found at demotivators online
Russian: "стойка для ковров" ("carpet stand). It is actively manufactured in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. Interestingly, manufactured by the same companies which produce playground hardware :-)
Finnish: mattoteline (carpet rack). Who says only backwards Slavs use it today? :-) See Finnish hi tech:-) [1]
