    It's actually Infarto. :-)

      I probably should have spellchecked before I posted. *awkward turtle*

        'I'll just grab that out of my ass" is my most favorite American expression. I nearly died laughing hearing that for the first time and my SO had to explain what it meant.

        Also "fanny pack" will make me s****** till the day I die.

          What on earth does that mean? I feel like I should know it, but all I can think of is stuff like "Get your head out of your ass," and having a stick up your ass.
          "You let me in your heart and out of my head."

            Its along the lines of "I'll make that appear from thin air shall I?" My roommate used to say it, I thought it was an Ohio thing, but maybe not!

              My favorite words are all Japanese because to me that's the most beautiful sounding language.

              Some of my favorites are

              Aishiteru- I love you
              Kaze- Wind
              Anata- You
              Taberu- To eat

              Notes:
              Met: 8.17.09
              Started Dating: 8.20.09
              First Met: 10.2.10

                I can only agree - which is why I've been studying it from before I met my SO.

                Guess my fave Japanese words are,

                Daijyoubu - Okay (as in, "I'm okay", "it's okay")
                Yuki - Snow
                Iroironairo - Various colors (I just love saying it XD)
                Ichigoichie - once-in-a-lifetime encounter
                Bajitoufuu - Talking to the wall/praying to deaf ears

                My fave sentence:
                Niwa ni wa ni wa niwa tori ga iru. (in the garden there's two chickens)

                  I don´t use Danish so much yet, but I like the word UDSALG, which means "sale" and so it is always good to see it in the shop window Also I like FLODHEST, meaning "hippo", cause that is how I sometimes call my SO - min lille flodhest (my little hippo) All in all, Danish is crazy difficult to learn (or at least for me), so I have long long way in front of me.

                      Looks like our Lucy was under the influence when she wrote that comment. Two mistakes in a row are not normal in her. Lol

                        Polish
                        Some of my favourites:
                        gąbka - sponge. It sounds so funny.
                        łoś - moose. I think you've all heard about my love for moose by now. But the Polish word sounds so cute. Especially if you use the vocative (case to address someone), which is łosiu (wosh-u).
                        wstrząsnąć - to shake. I wish I had an audio for you. I love this word and all its variations. It's hilarious.

                        I've used this maybe once in my life and heard it maye twice, but it seems to be the most popular exampe whenever people want to prove that Polish is crazy, so I have to add it:
                        źdźbło

                        These were the ones that I like because of how they sound. There are a few others that I like because of their meaning, but I'm not going to bore you with that.

                          Haha to be fair she didn't make a mistake this time. This season the characters of Parks and Rec decided that the character previously known as Jerry (whose real name is actually Gary) would be named Larry

                              This sounds so dumb, but my all-time favourite word he uses is just "No." The Aussie accent gets me every time.

                                Well my favourite Dutch word has to be:

                                Kut - C u n t (not sure about writing it together..) but I just love how the word kut can be used for any swearword. Like kuthoer is f*cking whore.

                                Poep hoofd - Poop head. I like to call my SO this playfully when he has a dumb moment. It was his idea to say it. So now I do.

                                Schatje - I think it literally translates to little treasure. But I've heard elsewhere it can mean cutie too. I just love the thought of calling my SO, my little treasure. Because, well he is. Thankfully, I don't need to add 'mijn' for my little treasure as it's an affectionate nickname anyway.

                                And when we're having the 'I love you more' little moments I quite like being able to go:
                                Ik hou van jou - Me.
                                Ik hou ook van jou - Davy.
                                Nee, ik hou meer van jou!! - Me
                                Nee! Ik hou het meest van jou!!! - Davy.

                                Hehe I also like it when he calls me 'mooi' which means beautiful.

                                :3
