Fun Foreign Vocabulary Words

I recently mentioned The Wonder of Whiffling website and now want to also mention its sister site, The Meaning of Tingo. I love books and websites on unusual words.

    Brilliant, BJ, thanks for sharing it. The part about 'Eskimo' terms for snow reminds me of a Swedish site revealing the truth behind what we believe to be 'facts', www.faktoider.nu For those of you not fluent in Swedish, part of it is actually in English. Some factoids are truly hilarious!

    I recently stumbled over your blog and I must say it's very interesting reading, and funny!
