Sometimes words aren’t enough to communicate with the object of your affection — English words, that is. In case you aren’t lucky enough to speak 12 languages fluently, here's a compiled love and dating-themed vocabulary list drawn from sources as varied as Tagalog, Dutch, and Inuit. Get over your saudade, indulge in a little cafuné, and you’ll be *queesting in no time.  :D


1. Mamihlapinatapai (Yaghan, Tierra del Fuego): This term, which holds the Guinness World Record for “most succinct word,” means “looking at each other hoping that either will offer to do something which both parties desire but are unwilling to do.”


2. Saudade (Portuguese):
A melancholic nostalgia for someone or something from the past.


3. Tuqburni (Arabic): The literal translation is “You bury me,” referring to a love so deep you can’t imagine living life without your partner.


4. Bakku-shan (Japanese): A girl who’s only attractive when she’s viewed from behind.


5. Forelsket (Norwegian): That intoxicatingly euphoric feeling you experience when you’re first falling in love.


6. Cafuné (Portuguese): The act of running your fingers through your lover’s hair.


7. Paasa (Tagalog): “A person who leads someone on (intentionally or not). Appearing as if they are genuinely interested romantically when they aren’t.”


8. Kummerspeck (German):
Literally translating to “grief bacon,” this delightful word refers to the less-than-delightful excess weight you gain from emotional overeating.


9. Onsra (Boro language of India):
That bittersweet feeling of loving for the last time — in other words, that feeling you get when you know a love won’t last.


10. Gretchenfrage (German):
A question asked for the purpose of finding out someone’s real intentions. First dates are overflowing with Gretchenfrages.


11. La douleur exquise (French):
The excruciating pain that comes from wanting someone you can’t have.


12. Queesting (Dutch): A whole verb dedicated to inviting a lover into your bed for some pillow talk.


13. Oodal (Tamil):
The fake-sulking you do after getting into a lovers’ tiff, usually over something inconsequential. Also see: crocodile tears.


14. Kilig (Tagalog):
The stupid-silly rush you feel immediately after something good happens, especially when it comes to love (like after accidentally bumping into your crush.)


15. Cavoli riscaldati (Italian):
When you attempt to start up a failed relationship or love affair. Also, literally, ‘reheated cabbage.’







OHKAY E.class, am kind of lazy today to post the rest (it's raining here in my place) yahoo!

An acquaintance of mine who was studying in Manila a few years back (a Theology major, oddly enough) shared a term that I've been waiting to use or share for quite some time now: "Srdce-pohlcující monstrózní had". Roughly translated from Czech, it means "a monster serpent that devours hearts";D

Learning to laugh at your failed relationships is a good thing, n'est-ce pas, Signora Daza?  laffman::

How the Nilfheim did Mira say this again...phonetically, I think it's "Serd-see-pol-chuwee-chee monstro-shzhnee hawd". I might be mistaken, of course. Czech was never my strong suit when it came to learning languages on the fly.

There are two ways to define "Vill du ligga": one can be taken as an innocent "Will you embrace me?" while the other can take "embrace" as a euphemism for "have sex with", as in "Will you have sex with me?"  ;D
