What do these two things have in common, you might ask... Well the great linguistic discovery of the day happens to involve these things items.
In one of the languages here, the following sentences:
"She married a bad man"
and
"She bought a bad pumpkin"
differ only in the tone on one of the vowels.
There's a euphemism in there somewhere, I'm sure!
