Zhopa. 'Popka' means 'Polly' as in the diminutive of parrot. And I should know.

Verny it would help if you add where the stress or emphasis is in your words or they are less easy to use in their present form.

I learnt head as "GulloVAA" so when I read your word it sounded strange.

Nigel told me ,when we were at Colchester , that the stress on the word can make the diffeence between your being understood or just being smiled at with tolearance !

FIGHT!

*thrusts out collins gem phraseboox* hmm there doesnt seem to be a word for "bottom" or even "bum", however *thrusts out collins dictionry* there isnt a word for a 'human' bottom, only for bottom of page hmm.
i think we had better go with lonley planet Wink

One can't trust a source as decadent as the Lonely Planet phrasebook, comrade. Collins Gem Dictionary, 1996 edition, p.386:

Arse [a:s] n (BRIT: Inf!) Zhopa
(word in cyrillic characters, obviously).

Interestingly enough, I use both words (zhopa, popka) in the next edition of KZ. Racy, eh?

hmm i dont think that collins is a very accurate source, *turns to page 408* there seems to be a word for 'bum', it says zadneetsa, this is getting too confusing, again i stick with lonlely planet, to settle there is only one way, ask a real russian, (or is that giving up Laughing

)

Couldn't there be a few words in Russian that mean the same thing?
After all we have quite few in English for backside.

Bobhr · Posted: Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:34 pm Post subject: Ask Barry

Barry is not on line but I can phone and ask him to check with his Ukrainian wife if you like?

I take it we need Arse
Bum and Bottom !?

In Swedish its Rumpa and German is Arsch (or Po !)

Do we need fart as well ? (thats Prut in Swedish and Futz in German !) arent languages fascinating.
