Spanish Profanity
The Spanish language employs a wide range of swear words that vary between Spanish speaking nations and in regions and subcultures of each nation. Idiomatic expressions, particularly profanity, are not always directly translatable into other languages, and so most of the English translations offered in this article are very rough and most likely do not reflect the full meaning of the expression they intend to translate. Overview In Spanish, as in most languages, swear words tend to come from semantic domains considered taboo, such as human excretions, sexuality, and religion, and swearing serves several functions in discourse. Spanish insults are often of a sexual nature, taking the form of implying a lack of sexual decency if the insulted person is a woman (e.g. ''puta'', "whore", ''perra'' "bitch") or implying a lack of masculinity if the insulted person is male (e.g. ''maricón'' "faggot", ''puto'' "male prostitute"). A particularly forceful Spanish insult is any mention ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Puto (film)
''Puto'' is a 1987 Filipino teen fantasy comedy film directed by Leroy Salvador and starring Herbert Bautista as the titular character, alongside Janno Gibbs, Mia Prats, Dennis Da Silva, Bing Loyzaga, Jigo Garcia, Gelie de Belen, Jayjay Salvador, and Cathy Mora. It is Bautista's first film to feature him in the solo lead role. Produced by Viva Films, the film was released on November 4, 1987, and was a box office success. Luciano E. Soriano gave the film a mixed review, praising Bautista's performance while having middling feelings about the supporting cast and some gaps in logic. Plot Ivanhoe "Puto" de la Cruz is a young puto vendor who dreams of being with Gina, his classmate at the Andres Bonifacio High School. After accidentally rescuing three little elves (Elvis, Boy George, and Travolta), he is granted a week-long chance to wish for anything he wants.

Puto (food)
''Puto'' is a Filipino steamed rice cake, traditionally made from slightly fermented rice dough ('' galapong''). It is eaten as is or as an accompaniment to a number of savoury dishes (most notably, '' dinuguan''). ''Puto'' is also an umbrella term for various kinds of indigenous steamed cakes, including those made without rice. It is a sub-type of '' kakanin'' (rice cakes). Description ''Puto'' is made from rice soaked overnight to allow it to ferment slightly. Yeast may sometimes be added to aid this process. It is then ground (traditionally with stone mills) into a rice dough known as ''galapong''. The mixture is then steamed. The most common shape of the ''putuhán'' steamer used in making ''puto'' is round, ranging from in diameter and between deep. These steamers are rings made of either soldered sheet metal built around a perforated pan, or of thin strips of bent bamboo enclosing a flat basket of split bamboo slats (similar to a ''dim sum'' steamer basket).

Puto (genus)
Putoidae is a family of scale insects commonly known as giant mealybugs or putoids. There is probably a single genus, ''Puto'', containing about sixty species. The genus name ''Macrocerococcus'' has also been used but it is now considered to be a synonym of ''Puto''. The genus ''Puto'' was formerly classified as a member of the Pseudococcidae; however, it so significantly differed from the rest of the Pseudococcidae that it was accorded its own family Putoidae. Hosts Giant mealybugs occur on a wide range of hosts, each species having its own specific host. Host plants commonly include conifers, grasses and various woody shrubs. All parts of the plant can be infested. Description The adult female is oval and up to five millimetres long and concealed by tufts of powdery white wax. If the wax is removed, two longitudinal black stripes can be seen on the upper surface of the body and the wax glands are large and conspicuous. The legs and antennae are well developed and a dark colour ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
