I had a teacher in the 90's call me a spaz.

Spaz was very mild in the US and very serious in the UK. Meant kinda different things too.

The opposite for extremity in these countries at the time was fanny. Meant completely different things.

Fanny is a semi common forename in Sweden.

And what does fanny mean to you?

[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

In Swedish? just a name, with unfortunate significance in the english language.
