"coger" means fuck in latin america, but not in Spain where we use it as "grab/pick" normally. It causes fun reactions to latinamericans visiting or living in Spain for sure as it's used a lot.

"correr" is also "run" in Spanish, we share a lot of words with Portuguese . ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น

This remind me of the word "Rapariga" where in Portugal is girl and here in Brazil is bitch

whoa, I was just wondering about whether similar thing happens in portuguese too. thanks for reading my thoughts!

Not just this happens in portuguese but sometimes is in the same country, there's a state here that calls a kind of bread of "cacetinho" with is a way to say little dick in the rest of the country

crazy haha! also, is this just a coincidence or does portuguese has more words that means both dick and bread(referring to pao and pรฃo)?

Not really, but we have a lot of words that mean dick or pussy
