Are German nipples the worst?

[Crackerofdoom]

I just learned the word for nipples in German is Brustwarzen

The literal translation is "breast warts"

Is this the worst direct translation or are there more out there?

Leichenwagen is a hearse, translates as Corpse car, so why isn't coffin a Leichenkiste?

I don't want to restrict people to just German translations but they really are awesome! I love this language!

Now I know that bagpipes are a Dudelsack (yodel sack) however, I may have to find myself and my breast warts unreasonable...

@Iwannabeadored20 German is a very literal language

Lots of funny examples here

Contraceptive pill is called Antibabypille!

I discovered this when my daughter was born here and I was trying to describe to the pharmacist I needed nipple cream. I looked at her horrified and insisted I didn't have breast warts. She was like, yeah love, I think you do... was so embarrassed when I whacked Linguee out and had to agree I needed the breast watt cream

[GrumpyHoonMain]

No Sanskrit is the worst. Over 20-30 words for nipple and most of them prefaced with ‘that place’ lol

[SuburbanFraggle]

@GrumpyHoonMain

No wonder they wrote the kama sutra then
