enjoy, i've never heard of this word! fartlek (FART-lek) noun A method of training, originally developed for runners, that involves intense activity interspersed with low effort. For example, sprinting and walking. [From Swedish fart (speed) + lek play).] |

i need to try more of that =) it makes sense too, cos german "fahren" means "to drive/ travel" |

Ew... that word is just too obviously gaseous to be aesthetically pleasing. I hope somebody bans that word! I'm just offended... |

we'll have to get phob's or gonzola's OFFICIAL 'yea' or 'nay' dat, but appears so. what i thought of when i thought of speed is what does the police officer say to you when he pulls you over for a SPEEDING ticket? =0) |

I guess the Swedes can pull you over for ''farting'' over there... sounds good, must be a fresh smelling road system. |

my girlfriend (who studies english and french) told me about a french word for the upper part of old windows in europe (an additional wing on the top that cannot be opened or something). i dunno how to write it in french but the thing is if you pronounce it correctly in that language you say 'was-ist-das' what is actually german (you wouldnt know as a french) and does mean "what is this". |
