Word of the day: Nov 6 2006
Todays word of the day is: buz-baz
Definition: It is an ancient persian word that describes"a showman who makes a goat and monkey dance together"
....yes, that is what you read...making a goat and monkey dance together...just dont ask...its better for everyone
Where i found it: I own a book titled "Theres a word for it". The book contains over 2000 words from different languages that mean the most strange and unusual things, and this is one of them. What you would ever use this for...i dont know...how often do the persians do this?...i dont know...is it really common for a monkey and a goat to dance with each other?...who knows...certainly not me, but there you go.
P.S- i have posted two pictures that most closely resemble what i believe to be a dancing monkey in one and a dancing goat in the other....google contains many things but a picture of a goat and a monkey dancing with each other is not one of them, if anyone can conjure up a picture of a monkey and a goat dancing with each other then feel free to send it to me, thanks
