Melody

the melody of this song is so familiar, but i cant quite place it .... it's possible that at some point when i was younger, i heard a nursery rhyme that was a derivative of this, and assumed it was the original, having never heard the version with frogs. but I can't track that down either. mostly putting this here as a reminder to myself so i can remember what it is. —Soap— 18:52, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

Using numbers in a sentence

Unless if it's from a specific source, then I would have to spell out the numbers that are zero to ten in words. MOS:NUMERAL. Allan Bao (talk) 23:25, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

It's from a source. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 19:14, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Here's another [1] that does uses the number words but ends on "he", and uses "some most delicious bugs".

Would be good to switch to a different source that spelled it out, if you want to look for one. --Lord Belbury (talk) 22:34, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Could use a better source than nurseryrhymes.org, which doesn't look particularly well written ("Sing, count, learn and anjoy - all while you are singing the nursery rhyme Five Little Speckled Frogs.!") and may be using less common wordings ("some most delicious grubs"?). --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Maybe could’ve found a better source that also uses the more common "Glub, glub", instead of "Brup, Brup." (as that would be confused with “Burp, Burp.")

Bus source

This article is not accurate and the source is unreliable.

There are three names related to this song, namely, Lucille Wood, Louise Binder Scott and Virginia Pavelko from various web pages. Its original title might be "Ten Little Frogs" and then adapted as "Five Little Frogs" and in later versions it is re-titled to "Five Little Speckled Frogs". It is probably not a traditional song at all but one written in 1950s. Please verify this article again. — HenryLi (Talk) 16:36, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
