What do your DC's call "passing wind"

We also 'never' seemed to fart in our family - my mum instead would sniff and say 'I think someone needs to go to the toilet'
Now with dd1 (she's 2) we do pop pops which seems to be a good compromise. I think farting is for boys

Used to be 'farty bot bots', not they're a bit older its generally just a fart.

And yes I do what my mum used to and ask if whoever farted needs the toilet. I swore I would never do that

My mum speaks gaelic - I don't, unfortunately - and she's always called them (have to spell it phonetically as haven't a clue): Bromacks.

So "I've done a bromack" or "I've Brrrrowmacked" or "Was that a bromack????" round here. Pretty sure nobody who hears has a scooby what we're on about

This is the funniest thread I've read in a long time!
I normally call a fart a fart. I don't quite understand people who get offended by that; it's like people who object to the word "knickers".
DD tends to use whatever word is currently going round her school. At the moment, it's guff, which has taken over from trump. My favourite one of her fart-words was pantipooff (sp?) which surfaced in about Y2.

tooting Hate hearing kids say FART and things like bottyburps just are so cringworthy.

fart.

DD thinks guff is funny too, as there is a picture of one in "oh the thnks you can think" in the Cat in the Hat series.

It was 'blow off' when I was at school. Was never mentioned at home.
Now it is fart and little dd says fart too, 'I done a fart mummy.' I can't stand any of the twee euphemisms. I'd feel embarassed to say them.
Now we live in the north, people around us say 'pumped.' or 'poomped' as it sounds like to me.
How can 'farting' be common, I think tweeness is a bit lowbrow myself. Fart is a verb in german isn't it, meaning 'to go.'

trumps all round in the greyskull house

Fart of Trump!
