Fun side note: My favorite word in possibly any language is revenge in Spanish: <em>rebanche</em>. I was in Mexico as a kid once, and this beautiful lady was talking English to me and my siblings. She said something like, 'It was her, I do not know the word, <em>rebanche</em>.' And she rolled the 'r' good and plenty. I was like, 'I do not know the word either, but that is the coolest word I've ever heard. And you are pretty.' (Um, I mean, I was like that in my head. I was a little kid, so I just asked my mom what it meant.) I just love how revenge plays out in different cultures.
