A few weeks ago, the Metro had an article about So Bad So Good's 25 Handy Words That Simply Don't Exist in English.

Other words I have been thinking about recently include "souffle" ("breath" in French), and the fact that paper, hair and God sound the same when you say them in Japanese. I ate Sicilian cactus fruit ice-cream recently and [livejournal.com profile] verticalsun26 told me prickly pears are also called "tuna". I ate tuna!
