plover said:The Bob sez: "There is no Albanian word for headache."
I'm not sure what this would mean. They must describe the phenomenon somehow. In English we invented a compound word, so there's no word for headache that's a root part of the English language. In Russian, the word for "hedgehog" is a two-letter root word: ёж. So could Russians say that English doesn't have a "real" word for "hedgehog". The French could also say that English has no word for eborgner ("to put [someone's] eye out")
Well it could be seen that way. I got this one from a book of random facts so not sure how accurate it is but Moonbear (above) found a word for eborgner . And the book also has those acryonms that no one wants.
