Favorite Foreign Language Word
« on: September 27, 2025, 10:20:52 PM »
I studied German for 2 years in high school.  There were many great words, but a Spanish word later in life took its place.

Tortuga.  Turtle.

I pronounce the word in a deep voice.  That makes it very commanding and scary.  It gives the impression of a mother using that word to scare her children into doing their chores or the Boogeyman will get them.

Lèche-cul I believe is a French compliment.
