Tamy won’t like that you revealed this well-kept secret. ☺

Who would have thought?

Oh, oh - erst heute sehe ich, welch' Aberglaube durch Tatoeba seine Verbreitung zu finden sucht! Teufel aber auch!
In Wirklichkeit - wie so oft - ist die Angelegenheit aber komplizierter:
1.) Tamy ist ja eigentlich ein Kobold - und ähnlich wie's hier vom Teufel behauptet wird - wählt er, wenn ihm danach ist, die Gestalt des Eichhörnchens (wie im Profil ehrlich beschrieben).
2.) Es handelt sich nicht um eine tatsächlich bestehende Identität "Teufel = Eichhörnchen", sondern um ein (leichtfertig konstruiertes) „tertium comparationis“:

Mit vergleichbarem Scharfsinn wird ja auch behauptet (s. Wallace & Gromit):
"Der Mond besteht aus Chesterkäse."

Das ist alles zu hoch für mich. Ich verstehe nur soviel: Der Teufel trägt gern Zobel, das Eichhörnchen hingegen trägt manches in seinen Kobel. Durch Verhören kann es hier leicht zu Verwechslungen kommen.

"Gefällt mir!" ☺
