What word/phrase have you stumbled across recently and subsequently put to good use? The more profane the better admittedly.
This reminded me of the thread on here "Describe yourself in one word", Ryan goes 'Overly verbose' and someone quoted him and went "That's TWO words".

Think that might have been me.

Followed it up with describing my self as smug.

The last word I learned is Pocho, spelling might not be right, which is apparentley Romanian for little

Re: What is your most recently learned word?

There are probably a few words for little/small or the like in Romanian but my name is the prefix to calling something small in Romanian according to Bogdan and Eugene.

The perineum is everything from the pubic symphysis to the coccyx, so technically it includes the genitals and arsehole, so it's not the same thing as the barse or guiche.

Re: What is your most recently learned word?

I have the opposite problem just now - I use words that no one else seems to understand and get asked what to explain what it means constantly. One guy at work particularly who makes me feel like an utter weirdo because he questions what I say constantly.

Off the top of my head, one of them was ennui. Not that odd.
