So I see that the name is derived from an esperanto word (apparently meaning "flatter") but in spanish it would also mean a small burp ("flato" being an informal term for burp). Which I still like as a name ;)
- avidphantasm 3y agoMy brain saw “fellatio” at first.
- crorella 3y agoFlatito means “little burp” in Chilean Spanish
- elondaits 3y agoIn Argentina a “flato” is a flatulence, and flatito would mean a little fart.
- eddd-ddde 3y agoIt's funny being a native Spanish speaker, and seeing other Spanish speakers talk about words you have never ever heard of before.
- dimatura 3y agoSeems like it's less universal than I thought, and has other meanings (but related to flatulence) in other countries than my own.
- ceritium 3y agoHi! Author here! I am spanish, flato means that, but it's also that pain in the side of the belly when you are running.
- dimatura 3y agoha, that's funny. Now that you mention it I've heard this. In my case I was referring to Chilean spanish.
- autoexec 3y agoIs there an English word for that?
- montag 3y agoColloquially just sideache, AFAIK.
- JNRowe 3y agoI always enjoy these side diversions, because they're full of "Huh, WTFs". In English I'd never heard anyone call it anything but "a stitch"¹ colloquially or ETAP as an actual condition, but sure enough side ache features in the list of alternatives on Wikipedia. Oddly, Wiktionary has an article for sideache² and a link to that page if you look for side stitch. Makes me curious how often that is the case now.
