There is a word that, I think, is the same in both languages and amuses me: collons (catalan, pronounced [kuˈʎons]) / kouyon (french creole, pronounced [kujɔ̃]). It can be an interjection showing astonishment or whatever the tone implies, or also an insult to someone, a fool, stupid person. · 1 year ago =>/johano 👽 johano my English is a strange combination of general Midwestern and Southern, colored by having lived in Texas and now Michigan, which has a bizarre accent made more bizarre by the fact that nobody here seems to think that they have an accent... strangest word? probably "faunching" used to mean moaning/groaning/complaining, which my Dad uses... @tskaalgard, I like "yanderways" and may have to steal it! 😃 · 1 year ago =>/danrl 👽 danrl haha :) i also own a lederhosn. i even married in tracht. · 1 year ago =>/bavarianbarbarian 👽 bavarianbarbarian @danrl you mix northern german and bavarian? this is heresy! this is madness!

As for weirdest word, perhaps ‘crapola’ which is a very slightly more intense word for ‘dang’ or ‘darn’. · 1 year ago
