	A user suggests that this German entry be cleaned up, giving the reason: “"female Friesin" for the Horse sense. Female Frisian horses are called Friese as well (compare for example Hund m (“dog”), Katze f (“cat”) as generic terms for both sexes regardless of gender).”
	Please see the discussion on Requests for cleanup(+) for more information and remove this template after the problem has been dealt with.
