Shark Fish


Explanation:
Shark is known as "SHARK" in Gujarati. Certain words used in English language to identify some creatures (birds, acquatic creatures, animals etc.) like Shark, Whale, Hippopotamus, Giraffe, Zebra etc. are retained and used phonetically in Gujarati language and there are no Gujarati words for them. Whereas, words like Rhinocerous have Gujarati equivalent as Gendo - ગેંડો. This is just to drive my point.
