To my eternal shame I don't really speak any languages other than English, but I did once have a Spanish flat mate, who taught me how to swear. From that day to this I have never found a better swear phrase in times of utter fury than the one he taught me. Can you beat it?

You mean like this....?




I still don't know what it means (apart from the last word which is very rude!)

In exactly what context do you say the word cunt without it being rude? Give me some examples of non-rude usage? Please.

Co?o is a vulgar word for a woman's vulva or vagina. It is frequently translated as "cunt" (and is, indeed, etymologically related) but is in reality significantly less offensive (it is much more common to hear the word co?o on Spanish television than the word cunt on British television, for example). In Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic it is amongst the most popular of curse words. The word is frequently used as an interjection, expressing surprise, anger or frustration. If you hit your finger with a hammer, ?Co?o! would be like "Shit!" or "Goddamn it!" It is also common to use the expression ?Pero qu? co?o? that could be translated as "What the fuck?" However, in Colombia it also means "diaper." Its usage was so common among Peninsular Spaniards in the Philippines that konyo became the Tagalog name for upper class people.

    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
    • We have had 4 greyhounds - the last one, a bitch, was not speyed so we  had to pay for that at our local vet.  Only one dog was nervous around children and only one was cat friendly.
    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down!
