Kont is also not the most used, nicest way of saying it. "Billen" is a better match.

I do blame the "why is it so different from English" on "Het Nederlands taalgenootschap", that was an organization that decided that a lot of Dutchified English would be changed to more Dutch terms. So is "Math" changed into "Wiskunde/Rekenen".
