    Most number of synonyms?

    I've heard it a hundred times, that the Inuit have a hundred words for snow.

    Generally speaking, I doubt that any language in the world can boast as many synonym options as British English.

    Have you ever come across a publication called Roger's Profanisaurus? I can wholeheartedly recommend it.

      But are there more synonyms for having sex or being drunk?

        All you ever needed to know about words for snow but were too afraid to ask.

          There are an alarming number of words for penis. And breasts.

            Vomiting has a lot of synonyms too.

            I estimate that 1,000 new synonyms for breasts or penis are created each day (counting all languages) it's the sort of thing that people make up on the spot.

            Perhaps we should name our favorites:

            Vomit
            Chunder
            Boot

            Intoxicated
            Three-Sheets to the Wind (so romantic, so evocative)
            Shitcanned
            Ripshit

            Intercourse
            Schtupp

            Penis
            Penis is pretty funny word on its own.
            Johnson

            Scrotum
            Coin purse
            Bozack

            Breasts
            If I'm being PC, breasts or "boobs" seems acceptable to women.
            I've I'm deliberately trying to be obscene, then "Rack" is appropriately crude.
            I'm also amused by women who have names for theres, like George and Gracie.

              In each case, you heard wrong.
