Neologism - Sprog
I run on the treadmill to one of those Nike + workouts where Lance Armstrong shouts orders in my ear to try and motivate and encourage me to be a leaner, stronger, faster version of me. During this 40 minute interval training workout he tells me to settle into a pace about 80% of my maximum intensity, not quite a sprint, but faster than a light job...the sprog.

oh! In English your sprogs are your children. It can be used as a verb and part of phrases too - particularly among my other 30 something child negative friends and I about our child bearing friends. "they're busy sprogging" which can be both the planning for conception and looking after the children once they arrived. These same parents will use it affectionately "got to pick up the sprog from nursery"
