Me gustan tus fiestas formales ;)

Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 1 day agoWe have lots of words for it. Depends on the kind of dance and what country the person you ask is from too. You know, kinda like the Inuits and snow thing. “bailar” (‘bhai-lahr’) is the most common but “menear el culo” is more appropriate for formal occasions.

Wasn’t the “inuits have dozens of words for snow” thing kinda disproven? Afaik they only have like 5 or something, the reason people were saying there were so many is because Inuktitut, Greenlandic, etc are polysynthetic languages, meaning you can pack a LOT of information into one word (it’s possible to make complex one-word sentences for example). This does mean that there are a lot of words based off the root for snow, which is where people got the idea
