    Dutch is not a serious language.

      The bright red rubbery utensil meant for scraping cake mix and gravy out of bowls. What is that? This really is my kitchenware. I'll put it whatever side you say.

      We call it the 'pannenlikker' in Dutch. The Pan Licker, basically.

        In swedish it's a slickepot, "lick-bowl", so neither spoon nor spatula (if I had to, I'd take spatula as they often are spatula shaped).

          I'd put it with the tongs. If you're just trying to grab a spatula without looking, you don't want the dough scraper. Same logic for spoons, the scraper won't do. So you put it with the weirdos in the bottom section.

            I've always heard it called a silicone spatula.

              The metal things beneath it are spatulas. The red doohickey is a rubber scraper.

              If you wouldn't use it to flip a pancake, it's not a spatula.

                It's a spoontula, cousin of the spork. It is created when a spoon and a spatula love each other enough to transcend reality. Just don't ever let two spoontulas stay in one area as they're very territorial and will attack each other. That's how the spoon drawer gets all messed up.

                  I'd call those metal things fish slices, not spatulas. Maybe a regional thing?

                    Must be. I'd call them an egg slice or fish slice like yourself. Spatula to me is silicone. Western Europe.

                      In swedish a rubber dog would be: gummi hund or gummihund!

                          There are a lot of spatulas I wouldn't use to flip a pancake though.

                                  Cooking shows call those thin metal things "turners". I've always called them spatulas.

                                  Etymology Online says spatula comes from Latin for "long flat blade".
