Hi fellow forumners !
We have a thread at culture exchange (http://www.mnfclub.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=921), we have a thread at how translation can make what you say silly (http://www.mnfclub.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1505).
I'm pretty sure there are words or expressions to take in many languages that could be fun to share for our little endeavors in here.
Here is a word :
OLISBO
(it comes from ancient greek, meaning "leather phallus")
It's an artificial phallus. Yeah, a smart word to say dildo :-)
The funniest thing with this word is the example given in french dictionary to illustrate how to use it.
A guy went to Japan. There, he discovered the samurais going to war gave to their spouses a wooden reproduction of their dicks he called olisbo. So much smarter than what europeans did with the chastity belt !
And a french expression :
"Etre chaud comme la braise" (to be hot as ember)
You'd say that of somebody very eager. The sexual implication is obvious, but it works in other situations (yeah, french is full of innuendos)

Making a girl smile can be much more rewarding than bedding her...
