Other Germanic languages either have their rendering of '''biplane''', or '''double-decker'''. I'm not really sure how to render it. German's "airplane" is '''flugzeug''', where ''zeug'' is related to English ''toy''. ''Deck'' is from the covering of a ship, related to OE '''þæc'''. So... now what?

:Well... Afrikaans has "dubbeldekkervliegtuig" - "double-decker airplane". It would be easy enough to be explicit like that (we already have two established words for plane - "lyftwægn" and "flyhtscrid"), so maybe some thing like "twibordlyftwægn" where "bord" means "deck".

::We need not have a single word, but '''lyftcræt mid twafealdum wingþele''' (from ''þelu''). [[User:Hogweard|Hogweard]] ([[User talk:Hogweard|talk]]) 12:23, 12 Mǣdmōnaþ 2013 (UTC)
