→ Caribbean Hindustani: calcattá

→ Danish: kakerlak

→ Indonesian: kakerlak

→ Papiamentu: kakalaka

First attested as kackerlack towards the end of the 16th century as a derogatory term for a chatterbox or sycophant, deriving from kakker, a contemptuous term derived from kakken (“to shit, defecate”), and lakker (“talker, freeloader”), from likken (“to lick”).
This word was subsequently conflated (from the mid-17th century onwards) with an unrelated early Portuguese form cacalacca designating the insect. The Portuguese word has in turn been argued to be derived from a Caribbean word, from which Spanish cucaracha and hence English cockroach also originate. However, a more likely theory is that the Portuguese learned that name from the people in the then Dahomey. In Fon, kakalaka means cockroaches.

A Feyenoord-Ajax match therefore became considered to be the classic football matchup in the Netherlands.

De Roosendaalsche renner Bronger is naar wij vernemen aangeworven voor de groote Fransche klassieker Parijs—Sedan over een afstand van 270 K.M.

1937 April 27, “Wielrennen. Bronger rijdt in Parijs-Sedan”, in Dagblad De Grondwet, volume 75, number 99, page 2:

The cyclist from Roosendaal has been, as we have learnt, recruited for the big French classic Paris-Sedan over a distance of 270 km.

In een Belgische klassieker voor Onafhankelijken over een afstand van 184 km., heeft Jan van Gelderen uit Sluiskil zich kranig geweerd.

1949 May 30, “Jan van Gelderen boekt een resultaat”, in Provinciale Zeeuwse Courant, volume 192, number 124, page 5:

1950/1951, Martin W. Duyzings, Sport op twee wielen, De Koepel (publ.), page 97.
Gij vindt zijn naam niet op de erelijsten der klassiekers, hij gold in de Tour de France uitsluitend als premie-jager en won meer dan eens een etappe in een massa-sprint, nadat hij door zijn ploegmaten handig gelanceerd was.

You don't find his name in the halls of fame of the road cycling classics, he exclusively functioned in the Tour de France as a finisher and won more than once a stage in a bunch sprint, after he had been cleverly jumpstarted by his crew mates.

(sports, originally cycling) a sports classic, a traditional match

Men zou het de klassieker van de techniek kunnen noemen, al is die van Feijenoord momenteel dan wel meer geslepen.

1957 March 14, “Klassieker der techniek: Ajax-Feijenoord. Ook Fortuna-Enschede van belang”, in De waarheid, volume 18, number 62, page 4:

One could call is the classic of technique, although in taht case Feijenoord's technique is currently more polished.

Door ernstige supportersrellen wordt de klassieker sinds 2009 zonder uitpubliek gespeeld.

2014, P. Onkenhout et al., Koning voetbal: een lexicon van het Nederlandse voetbal, page 134:
