fusilo - gun,
ceigered:I believe the 'fusi' refers to the 'rifling' inside the barrel of a gun which improves accuracy, a twisting groove which early guns, like muskets, didn't have. So a 'fusilo' is a bit more specific & brings to mind a rifle with a long barrel.Rogir:I personally prefer pafilo for gun. It's such a nice and fun word.Actually thats a much better word, thanks Rogir
I thought of this because I like to eat fusili.

Are you sure about that? It always sounds much closer to a regular h to me.

Pharoah:> The ĥ is the same as the Mandarin "h" sound...Mandarin Phonology.

Voiceless velar fricative [x]
There's no English "h" in
