    Hello Everybody,

    Has anybody other than me noticed 'putin' means 'whore'
    in Cajun French?

    I am not sure where this post belongs, if anywhere.
    I found it somewhere on the internet, by some blogger
    who apparently likes golf. Or maybe he was a caddy for
    one or both of the players, which would explain how he
    got the quotes -

    A post shared by No Pops Golf (@nopopsgolf)

    TRUMP: They’re all saying, “Oh, he’s a nuclear power. It’s like they’re
    afraid of him. You know, he was a friend of mine. I got along great
    with him. I say, “Vladimir, if you do it, we’re hitting Moscow.” I said, “We’re gonna hit Moscow.” And he sort of believed me, like 5%, 10%. That’s all you need. He never did it during my time, John, you know.
    We’re all talking about it. He didn’t do this during the last four
    years because he knew he couldn’t.

    DALY: It’s funny how [President] Xi didn’t bother you either.

    TRUMP: Yeah, no, Xi didn’t bother me. I told him the same thing. You, that’ll be next. You know, that’s gonna be next. Taiwan will be next.
    You won’t have any computer chips. They’ll blow them off the face of
    the Earth.

       Putain in real French, puta in Spanish. Close enough.

    Does Russia's boss-man speak French, Spanish or Cajun? Does he give a fuck?

    Hello Ward,

    Has anybody other than me noticed 'putin' means 'whore'
    in Cajun French?

    That was already mentioned more than a decade ago.

    Names have meaning. That includes surnames. For example,
    my surname (Lofaso) is Italian, an unflattering nickname
    from 'falso' (false), with the definite article 'lo'.

    If you're trying to be original try something else instead...

    Putin is French, from the personal name 'Autin', a vernacular
    form of Latin 'Augustinus' (see Austin). In French this name
    is a homophone of 'Hautin' (haughty) and 'Hottin' (maker or
    bearer of baskets).

    Putin is most likely found in:

    France 107 found in Family Tree
    Philippines 18 found in Family Tree
    Russia 12 found in Family Tree

    [source: https://www.familysearch.org/]

    I have no God's earthly idea where Dossche comes from.

    Cajuns have never been known as great spellers.
