Prozvinit is easy - beep (announcing your arrival or asking for a call-back.) But it's archaic in the current time of unlimited minutes.
Entarter is easy - if you told me you were going to pie someone I'd grab the camera.
Palinca is super easy - Almost every culture has a home-distilled alcohol drink and if you're not picky about exactly what it is made of translations are simple. In the States moonshine would be understood as the equivalent drink.
P.S. These messages only have a day on them not a date. They are confusing to try to follow.
Bunฤ Jano,
The words are really similar, aren't they? Thank you for sharing this information with us.

Bunฤ Raluca,
I checked it and the Czech/Slovak word for it is Pรกlenka.

Salut Jano,
Wow! Thank you for sharing.
I had no idea that there are similar products in other countries too. Do you know if it's the same word in Czech or Slovakian?
Raluca
Bunฤ Raluca,
... Actually, why not? The Turkish word 'Gumusservi' (No. 8) was also listed and there is a Hungarian word for that, too: ezรผsthรญd, which literally means sg. like 'silver bridge'.
By the way, similar products exist in Czechia and Slovakia, too. :smile:
Hi Jano,
It's funny that you chose the word "palinka", because in Romanian sounds the same : pฤlincฤ and has EXACTLY the same meaning (double-distilled plum brandy).:smile::thumbsup:
Pรกlinka: Hungarian - Drink that is about 55% alcohol.
Abiocco: Italian - Napping after a huge meal
Sobremesa: Spanish - Staying at the Table after a meal to talk
Hi Listeners! What words would you add to this list? Let us know!
