I contend that the German word for lockers, Schließfächer, is one of the dirtiest sounding words in any language, but isn't dirty at all.

I've always wanted to fly Aer Lingus, just to say it.

I would also add - cocksure.

Why don't members of congress use bookmarks?

Tophat665 08-15-2007 07:48 PM

Ballcock, stopcock, weathercock, peacock (Make you wonder if peahen might not be the incorrect feminine version, knowhudimean?)

Masticate, Macerate

The French for Seal is Foq (pronounced Fuck). There's actually a French kid's book. "Je suis une petit foq"
The Spanish word for "to put or place" is poner. It's irregular in the preterit (definite past), so the first person preterit is pusé, pronounced Poosay.

tittillation

Fuqwad is a perfectly normal Arabic name.

Big Beaver Lick, a stream in Kentucky

Jackass Hole, the original English name of Jackson's Hole, Wyoming.

Ashram.

Entire Butt (a style of Porter)

Best Boy Grip...

"Laputa" is actually a loaf of a particular Swedish bread that has no connection with prostitution or anything Spanish at all.

"Neger" is the ligitimate Germanic (German, Swedish, etc.) word for people of black skin (African) and isn't the slightest bit derrogetory.

Consequently, "Neger Kisses" is the German word for a chocolate-mix confection, rolled into a ball and has nothing to do with the "N word" associated with American racial slang.
