Guess it’s better than “Sagrado Corazón de Jesús Padre Nuestro Que Estás en el Cielo San Juditas Cuídame de Esta Sucia Serpiente Tuerta que Invade Mi Santuario Inmaculado Aunque Sea Un Poco Peludo Ay Ay Ay” I’ve heard reports of Mexican women saying “Qué rico” (akin to “feels so good”)and “Dámelo” (“give it to me”). ---

My best friend and I got into a discussion about this in spanish class freshman year. We took a poll…nobody had been with a person from Mexico, so we never found out for definite. I’d love to hear the answer though 🙂 ---

If Christians say “God”, do other cultures say, “Allah”, or “Buddha”? Did I spell that right? god I’m getting paranoid. did I speell that right? Shit, I spelled “spell” wrong. I wonder if I’ll remember this tomorrow. Arken, if I had 18 year olds lying around, I sure as hell wouldn’t be drunk off my rocker typing on an educational board. No sir, I’d be teaching those girls the importance of a good education. Have to have that, or else… No, wait. I probably would have to get freaky with them. Yeah. Then comes the education talk. Then some more booty. I’d better stop now. ---

Russians say “Ia konchu”, literally “I’m finishing”. As a matter of fact, the slang is so pervasive that they have to use the reflexive verb _konchit’sa_ in order to say “I’ve finished doing something”. Which I learned the hard way one evening, after coming home from an English lesson for the two daughters of a friend (neither of whom were of legal age at the time). My buddy asked me why I was home so early from the lesson and I replied “Ia konchil”. I’d never seen anyone spray beer out their nose before. As for vocalizations _during_ sex in Russian, I regret to inform the board that I have absolutely no idea about that. Not for lack of trying, however. ---

Thanks, Olentzero. It was fairly clear in context, but I never got around to asking for an actual translation on that. 😃 I can also testify to many uses of “Da!” ---
