    "Porra!" Unintentionally Added to My Lexicon

    Today I woke up at 2pm; clearly I was tremendously late to work. In a rush to leave, I stubbed the hell out of my toe on the stairs and screamed out "PORRA!!" like Cyborg Abreu finishing a leglock. This was completely involuntary and required no premeditation on my part. Obviously, I am tremendously proud to find that I have a new and exotic profane exclamation in my vocabulary. Of course this is entirely due to BJJ.

    Have you guys picked up any foreign words that you use naturally in everyday conversations? And if anyone says something stupid like, "I tell my girlfriend "Te amo" all the time," I will personally gogoplata you into oblivion.

    Do they have to be profane? lol

    'hetarded' probably doesn't count... I'll have to think about it.

    Once, during class, I asked my (brazilian) bjj buddies to teach me a relevant word, and one of the ones that stuck was, "Quente."
    It's pronounced Ken-chee, and it means hot, so now when i get in the car, and it's blazing hot from the Florida sun, I say, "baby turn on the car, é quenche in here!!"

    About 30% of all words that start with an "R" I pronounce like an H without trying to be funny

    My 6 year old daughter says "caralho" when faced with a situation she considers less than desirable.

    "Dad, can I go to Carter's house and play?"

    "Not right now, sweetheart."

    "Caralho."
