# Ugandan affairs
## English
### Etymology

Probably a variant of Ugandan discussions (“(UK, euphemistic, informal) sexual intercourse”), from discuss Uganda (“(UK, euphemistic, informal) to have sex”), said to have been coined by the English journalist and poet James Fenton (born 1949), based on a 1973 incident at a party at which the Irish journalist Mary Kenny (born 1944) explained why she was in the arms of a former Ugandan cabinet minister by saying they were “upstairs discussing Uganda”. The incident was reported by the British satirical and current affairs magazine Private Eye on 9 March 1973, which then popularized the expression by using it to refer to other sexual affairs.

# picciriḍḍu
## Sicilian
### Alternative forms

Uncertain. Probably from an unattested Norman or Occitan superstrate/adstrate, because of the palatalization of the -cc- nexus. Eventually derived from Latin *piccus, borrowed from Proto-Celtic *bikkos (“small, little”); possibly influenced (and/or conflated) by dissimilation by Latin paucus (“few, little”). Cognate with Neapolitan piccerillo and Greek πιτσιρίκος (pitsiríkos). Compare Provençal picho and pechin. See also Sicilian picca and picciottu.

# -는데
## Korean
### Alternative forms

* 은데 (-eunde) — see Usage notes
* ㄴ데 (-nde) — see Usage notes

### Etymology

Possibly grammaticalized from 는 (neun, “that, which is”, present-tense adnominal suffix) +‎ 데 (de, “place”, dependent noun).

### Pronunciation

* (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA: [nɯnde̞]
* Phonetic hangul: [는데]

### Suffix

는데 • (-neunde)
* since; used to convey current relevant circumstances before an explanation, suggestion, question, etc.
    밖이 시끄러운데 무슨 일 있나?Bakk-i sikkeureounde museun il inna?It's noisy outside; is something going on?
    날이 좋던데 어디 놀러 안 갈래?Nar-i joteonde eodi nolleo an gallae?I saw that it was nice outside, why don't we go have fun?
    야, 밖에 눈 오는데 눈싸움하자!ya, bakk-e nun o-neunde nunssaum-haja!Hey, it's snowing outside! Let's have a snowball fight!

** An interrogative suffix urging the listener to respond, used with an interrogative.
    뭐를 먹었는데?mwo-reul meog-eon-neunde?So what did you eat?

#### Usage notes

* 는데 (-neunde) causes stem-final ㄹ (l) to drop out.
* 는데 (-neunde) is used for all verbs, for the existential adjectives 있다 (itda), 없다 (eopda), and 계시다 (gyesida), and for adjectives with tense marking with 었 (-eot-) and 겠 (-get-).
* The grammatical principle of 는데 (-neunde) can be applied to adjectives. However, instead of attaching 는데 (-neunde), you must attach ㄴ데 (-nde)/은데 (-eunde), where 은데 (-eunde) comes after an adjective that ends in a consonant, and ㄴ데 (-nde) attaches directly to an adjective that ends in a vowel (or with the consonant ㄹ (l)). This applies to the copula 이다 (-ida) as well. Note that 싶다 (sipda, “to want”) is an adjective.
# խնդամ
## Old Armenian
### Etymology

Uncertain. The similarity with Middle Persian [script needed] (hndytn' /⁠xandīdan⁠/, “to laugh”), Persian خندیدن (xandidan, “to laugh”) has been long noticed, but in case of borrowing from it one would expect *խանդամ (*xandam). To account for this and for the vocalism seen in խինդ (xind, “joy”) Hübschmann tentatively assumed the Armenian and Iranian are both inherited from Proto-Indo-European *kʰendʰ-; but note that the existence of *kʰ in PIE is not accepted nowadays and that the vocalism of խինդ (xind, “joy”) may be back-formed from խնդամ (xndam). See also խնծիղ (xncił).

### Verb

խնդամ • (xndam)
* to rejoice, be glad
    խնդալ ընդ ումեք ― xndal ənd umekʻ ― to rejoice with
