Horseshoe Explanation: The word hästsko means horseshoe. The word itself does not really have an alternative meaning, so my guess is it did not belong with whatever was advertised? Without the text it is hard to concern. In Swedish folklore, horseshoes hanging on the wall with the opening upward like this: U, means good fortune. If it is turned the other way, it means the opposite because the good fortune is leaking out. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2013-06-27 16:28:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- (I meant hard to discern, not concern! :) Example sentence(s):
