FFS you really are autistic, aren't you?

He put the word "Idiot" into the term "Idiot Savant".

Eh? But than having 1 surely more potential to be more than 1, than 0 to be more than 1? 0 is 0, IMO, everyone is just wrong to use plural word after it and it took a sharp mind like mine to notice this.

Is there a dictionary which will translate slang, profanity etc?

This does profanity: http://www.wikicurse.com/lang.php?langid=101

How does it work in Russian? Do you say:

0 houses, or 0 house?

Well, it occurs to me now the same mistake was made in the Russian language

Makes more sense to use the plural, as there could potential be more than 1.

I am just thinking aloud here. Let's look at what you said again:

"That's not portuguese. Make that 0 words"

Note "words", this is used for plurals - 2 words, 10 words, but 1 word. The question I have is why "words" when we deal with not a plural number, 0 is even less than 1. Komprehende comrade?

If you listened to other people, you would notice nobody uses 0 in the singular

There were 0 car on the road.
0 condition for a good match.

Pardon?

Portugal if possible.

Maybe it will help, if you give me an example of what you want translated.

[Pinto]

Hmm, this made me think, is 0 plural (multiple) to use word "words" rather than word "word"? Or is my portugeese better than English?

Pardon?

[Chantho]

Portuguese from Brazil or Portugal?

What about here

Much the same as the other sites. Their "O Gordon Doura" for Gordon Brown was amusing, though.

I know just one word: aguero.

That's not portuguese. Make that 0 words
