Notes: Some of you may have wondered whatever happened to my Word of the Day posts. In a word, Wiktionary happened. My main impetus for making these to compare terms in different languages with an eye to expanding my vocabulary. Wiktionary makes that possible without all the dictionary consulting and entry formatting. If a couple of my usual languages are missing, well, better to add them there where they're of use to everyone instead of here where they'll hardly be noticed.

Except every once in a while you hit upon a term where, surprisingly, only a handful of translations are given. Taste bud was one such example, and as long as I was hunting down equivalents and inputting them, I thought I might as well copy them over here as well.
