lesson 160--Word Options including slang


 
 
Because some words in English aren't polite to use (though this changes over time) we have to be creative.  This is especially true when we think of body parts.  The word ass is one of those words we considered to be not so polite, so I thought today I would give you some alternatives to this word.  Not surprisingly, there are quite a few of them.  There are probably more.....because even I don't know them all.

 

  • ass
  • butt
  • arse
  • bum
  • behind
  • backside
  • bottom
  • buns
  • fanny
  • rear
  • rump
  • can
  • tush
  • tushy
  • caboose
  • booty
  • moneymaker (as in shake your money maker)
  • gluteus maximus (Latin name)
