Family members and toe nails (Indonesian)

There are so many different variations of this one but this is one that is quite common. Kuku kaki kakakku kaku-kaku. Literally, this translates as 'the toe nails of my older sibling are stiff' ... but then you can also involve your grandpa ... Kakak, kok kuku kaki kakek kaku-kaku, kak? or literally, 'Older sibling, why are the toe nails of grandpa stiff?'
