OBs 2007 Easter Egg Hunt

Druid

Hi Y'all,

It's time for an Easter Egg Hunt, like we did with Sinterklaas Surprise Hunt 2006. If you don't know what I'm talking about, see this page at my site.
The prize is a page at OBsUTP you can call your own. We used to call them "Profile Pages", but later on I felt that "User Pages" would be better. It's a space on my site where you can introduce yourself, or offer downloads, or link to your games, whatever. Anything goes, really, as long as it's approved by me and of course Lee and Dewi.

I'm extremely busy at the moment (remodeling kitchen, for one, and working on ITT2007 preparations, and a couple of other private things that take up almost all of my time). So I'm not going to bother with changing "secret links" every day.
What I did was this: somewhere in my pages, I hid a reference to easter. No secret link, no hidden pages, just a single word. I used Wikipedia to find a translation of the word "Easter" in another language. It might be dutch, german, finnish, polish, limburg (my own dialect), or probably something else.
It does stand out, though. What I mean is: it's in a sentence, but has no relevance in or to that sentence.
Plus: I've made sure that that particular word, if googled, gives that languages wikipedia lemma for easter as first hit [ *]. So there should be no doubt.

The rules:
-find that word;
-be sure it means easter;
-email me, telling me the word and the page where you found it;
-BE ONE OF THE FIRST FIVE TO DO SO (like with Sinterklaas Surprise Hunt, five entries only);
and your own User Page @ OBs is yours!

Oh, and this time everyone is invited to join. Yes, even Druids, Mods, or Site Gods. Closing date is Easter Sunday, 23pm BST --we are in BST by that time, right?

Bear with me though, please. I'm very busy, so it might take a while to get your page online. But it's yours if you find the word and email me, promise!

[ *]For instance: if the word you find is "easter", and you google "easter", the first hit google mentions is the wikipedia page for "easter". Try it, it is! Obviously, since the word we look for is in another language, you will find a wikipedia page that is in that language. Just use the "in other languages --> english" hyperlink in wikipedia to find out if it really means "easter".

Happy Thudding!

Magrat found it as well. She already has her own userpage, but will get a special mention as a thank you for joining the Hunt.
Please let me repeat: druids, mods and gods are invited as well this time.
