I know what you mean, let's see if there are any native speakers who know of an English word

Are we sure that's a real word? (Snerk is another that sounds like what it means.)

What's "snerk" in Swedish? I bet it's really cute.

So, in translation, you'll say "that icky stuff on the top of my cold soup"? *NM*

Could be "twirly". . . some times. *NM*

Except it really doesn't work if you want to describe a person's movement. *NM*

Yes, snirkle has to end up just right. Think spending 10 minutes on one letter to get it right. *NM*

You could alternately call it a "flourish", especially now that we've seized "snirkle". *NM*

To flourish, yes. But in English, Snirkle will henceforth be a verb AND a noun.

Just say "snirkle" and pronounce it like we would - snerkl *NM*

No it doesn't. There's even a candy called "Snirkles".

In the name of Anglophonia, I claim the word "snirkle" (pronounced "snerkl")

I like "køntri". Suitably lame. *NM*

Now that is an excellent point, although still not good enough to cancel out the horrible spelling *NM*

Ours is a verb as well. I could also decide to make it an adjective.
