mum fancy, have a crush (v)

The most common way to express this is with the verb mum, literally "taste, sense flavors."

Context generally resolves any confusion. Or, if you are caught licking somebody's Mum, maybe not.

'uS tutren

Some of you may remember, way back when I posted about DeS tutren inside of the elbow (n), whether or not there would be a 'uS tutren inside of the knee (n)?

Here you are. Indeed 'uS tutren is a thing.

And that's the last of the new vocabulary from the qep'a' wejmaHDIch.
