SNOW.

yep, can you imagine the shock ? ( "snow above 1800 m." )

Aren't you in the French-speaking part? Snow is not a four-letter word in French.

I was thinking the same thing but couldn't be bothered to look up snow in French. German is Schnee, which looks like 6 letters to me.

yes I am in the french speaking part and Sundae is correct with "neige" but as I listen to the local English speaking radio station snow comes out sounding strangely like snow.
