Eng: There was two bakers, and one ran away. There was two bakers, and one batter.

2.
Sw: Det var två myror och en stack.
Eng: There was two ants and one left. There was two ants and one anthill.

Bonus:
Sw: Var var vår vår.

EDIT:
A swedish compound word:
Råååål[Råå-å-ål] - an eel of the creek of the village Råå.

To escort those who remained.
