Americans are goofy af "criss cross applesauce" bitch that don't even rhyme
uk we say "cross legged" or "cross leggéd" if you're feeling Shakespearean
Fun fact: in Hungarian we say "Turkish sitting" (törökülés).
Boring fact: it's also "sit like a Turk" or "sit the Turkish way" in Russian (сидеть по-турецки).
Now I'm curious what they say in Turkish.
UPD: me and @TheGreenGolem@lemm.ee are referring to the Lotus position which is what it is called in Turkish.
