tak

It is both a noun and a verb in Persian (Farsi) for "Deliberate Missed Call". In Iran, like when we try to make a "remark" or "confirmation" via cellphone to somebody, sometimes instead of texting or calling that person we just "tak" them and they get a "tak". I think it'd be so perfect if in English you use this notion and word.

"So, when the dinner is ready, I will give you a tak so that you can come over, okay?"

"I don't understand. Why is she tak'ing me all the time?"

"Why don't you give me a tak so I can have your number?"

"Please don't tak me any more. It really disturbs me a lot."

kos-mashang

"kos" is the slang Persian word for "vagina", and "mashang" is the informal Persian for "eccentric"/"stupid"/"wacko". "kos-mashang" /k(something between schwa and c:)s mashang/ is a person who is easily cheated or abused; is a freak who is completely unpredictable and is capable of doing any strange thing like flying a kite out of his/her ass, for instance; has completely no clue of what is going on. The English equivalents for "kos-mashang" can be "a jackass", "a douche-bag", "a sucker", "a freak", or maybe a "dork"/"geek".

"Kos-mashango nigash kon. Bejaye inke sandalisho bekeshe jolo dare Piano ro mikeshe tarafe khodesh."
English: "Look at the douche-bag! Instead of moving the stool closer to the Piano, he is pushing the Piano closer to the stool."

B: "Velesh kon, baba. Kos-mashange."
