Talk:L.H.O.O.Q.

translation

Translation was Wrong. "cul" in french equal "ass". not for vulgarity, an expression for "politiquement incorrect" in french. I don't know how I can translate this in english.

The current translation ("She has a hot ass") is wrong. A literal translation would be "She is hot in the ass" (hot in the sense of temperature, not physical) which in English is different. A correct (non literal) translation would be (as is correctly stated in the article) "She is horny" / "She's a horny [girl]" (or "She has fire in her ass", a closer English equivalent to the original while retaining some meaning).

Right. Any native French speaker, as I am, would say that "avoir chaud au cul", for a girl, means that she is a nymphomaniac (this vulgar expression suggests that she is unable to put her ass at rest). I don't know English slang well enough to estimate accurately how close enough "nymphomaniac" is to the few translations given here or in the article but if "she has a hot ass" simply means "she as an exciting ass", then this translation is wrong. "Elle a chaud au cul" has nothing to do with her body, but with her behaviour. — Xavier, 22:34, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Or, in simpler terms: "She's in heat"? 9_9 193.63.174.115 (talk) 09:12, 11 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How come it was first conceived in 1919 but had a version in 1918? Femistofel (talk) 06:29, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

La rire, URL problem

I noticed the absence of citation for Bataille, so I found cite on French WP. But the links do not work properly. Could somebody fix that? PraeceptorIP (talk) 18:45, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
