The Golden Helmet~

About Barks's "The Golden Helmet", OS 408:

> Sharky's legal language on page 7 is, "Flickus, flackus, fumdeedledum!" 

In panel 27.5, a nephew uses this line, too. 
But this time it means, "We're back on the hook again!"

What follows are some other quotes from the story. Olaf didn't ask for 
them, maybe but could be because these legal phrases are missing in the 
Norwegian translation? (Or did you only need a few quotes, instead of 
all of them, Olaf?)

In panel 28.3, a nephew says "Griftus, graftus, gaspus!" 
Meaning, "Unca Donald's turned out to be a dirty snake!"

In panel 31.6, Donald says "Nikus, nokus, nopus!"
Meaning, "I DON'T WANT TO!"

In panel 31.8, a nephew says Yikkus, yakkus, youbettus!"
Meaning, "YES!"
