    My favorite ;)

    Nothing even close exists in the Russian language.

    Intersting observation. I have heard many of those English terms, but only know what some of them mean. Others I am not so sure about. ;)

    I also think English is much richer than other languages in several other areas:

    1. Law.
    2. Business
    3. Sport
    4. IT/telecom

    Basically, in areas where English-speaking countries were very advanced.

    Best regards,
    dp.
