They Have a Word for It (link via Caterina).

Through my profession (Technical Communications) I have a passing interest in all things wordy/language-ey etc (despite my frequent bastardisations), and this kind of thing always piques my interest. It also reveals a lot about other customs and cultures, and shows the Western world up for what it can be, staid, conservative, and ‘safe’. I think we should encourage mbuki-mvuki more often.
