Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Nov 26, 2014:
Precisely, Jerry. This name was chosen because it rhymes with klasa. There are not that many words that rhyme with class (glass, bass, ...) and that make any sense. For that reason, I chose joeys - young kangaroos.
Jerry Dean (asker) Nov 26, 2014:
class name This is just the name of the class, but does not describe its activities. Just like the name Dolphins, Teddy Bears, etc.

Hopsasa

PAPAGENO

Der Vogelfänger bin ich ja, The birdcatcher am I indeed,
Stets lustig heisa hop-sa-sa! Always merry, heisa, Hop-sa-sa!
Ich Vogelfänger bin bekannt I, birdcatcher, am well known
Bei alt und jung im ganzen Land. To old and young throughout the land.
Weiß mit dem Lokken umzugehn, Know my way around with the traps,
Und mich aufs Pfeiffen zu verstehn! And how to be understood on the fife!
Drum kann ich froh und lustig sein, Thus can I happy and merry be,
Denn alle Vögel sind ja mein! For all the birdies belong to me!!
