Translation?[edit]

I'm not sure that "The Hammer Blow" is an apt translation of Swedish Storsmockan. Perhaps "Hammer Blow" has some sort of different connotation in the U.S. than being something else than the striking of an actual hammer. 'Storsmocka' is a fistpunch, 'smocka' is (slang?) for 'punch' (I think it could refer uniquely to a punch in the face, not sure), 'stor' means 'big' or 'great'. Perhaps "The Fist Punch" would be a better wording? --Soman (talk) 17:09, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
