Unfortuntely I can not edit or remove my post but will PM Admin and Lana and ask for a deletion.
I apologise wholeheartedly to those that took offence and send the warmest of fuzzies to those that did not.
Magnus, you have touched my heart. Now you are ripping it out. I did not translate for the ADMIN. I lied (apologies to L---). Too hot to handle, it was.
I have sent PMs to both Lana and Admin to apologise and ask for a deletion of the post and further references to it.
Although it was not my intention to offend, I think it only good practise if we all show a bit of good 'Netiquette' and am always happy to apologise if necessary.
For those that are interested, here are the core rules of Netiquette:

Apology accepted magnus dear, although I didn't know what the words meant!! We often try and coax our Turkish teacher to "spill the beans" on a few naughty words - but she wont budge!! The "worst" phrase she ever told us was "Eşek kafılı" (donkey head, I believe) which is probably the most appropriate for some of the drivers here!!!
Under the correct circumstances,'esek kafali' can be a term of endearment. Your teacher was indeed a prude.
I think she is a lot more lively than she makes out!! She is stunningly beautiful and is in the national Turkish Cypriot folk dancing group - she also does salsa competitions.
Agreed, but in Cyprus, i believe teachers are proud people and are the keepers of our childrens morals too. I love her.
My mum said that she let me sleep a bit more since she heard that I stayed up until late.
