I needed that!

I am always too lazy to look it up, and I usually figured that they could figure it all out. Well, about a year ago I quit writting "anos" after I saw that the translator translated it as "anuses". Instead of looking it up, I avoided writting it like the plague.

I like a good joke on me, but after discovering this, my mind just got the best of me. Saying that I have 37 anuses and my niece has 4 was just too much.

Thanks!

"Saying that I have 37 anuses and my niece has 4 was just too much."

That just gives an entirely different meaning to "cracks me up".

Not to mention that writing "feliz ano nuevo" suggests that the other person is going in for a rather bizarre surgical procedure, or a very unpleasant chat with the boss.
