Description

For anyone who speaks another language, how do you say Crayon in your language?

Edit: Thank you everyone who is responding, I love learning new languages/words :)

Hmm, interesting question. I'm Danish but I don't actually know a word for it =D. In German it's called "Wachsmalstift", however =)

In French, it can be called "crayon de cire", which means "wax pencil". Indeed, the French word "crayon" actually means "pencil" in English. This is known as a false friend, of which there are many between English and French.

In Spanish it can be called "Lápiz de cera" (Wax pencil) or simply "Cera" (Wax), although most people call them Plastidecor, which is the most famous brand of crayons.

In English, Crayon and Pastel are slightly different things, as are colored pencils
