My favorite Russian word (and pretty much the same for all other Slavic languages) is правда (truth). I also like the word курва :). Hahah I know it's bad...
In Czech I really like saying anything with the letter ř. I love the way it just sounds. Like dobře, or lekařka. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Hmmm...I had't run across that term yet myself, but I do recognize the two parts of it (집 = house; 사람 = person). 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I'm a big fan of the french word "tarabiscoté" which is in itself slightly tarabiscoté.

I don't know why but the word bollard always makes me giggle like a school girl.

It's more a phrase that a word, but "not busy" in colloquial Arabic is: مش مشغول
Transliteration: mish mashghuul. It sound hilarious to my English ears. 1 person has voted this message useful |
