How do you say these questions in your language?
Thought this is not a question on English but on all other languages, please allow me to post it here as there is no category for "all languages".
How do you say these 3 basic questions in YOUR language?
1) What is X?
2) What does Y mean?
3) How do you say Z in [English (please replace this with your language)]?
In Japanese, for example,
1) Xとは何ですか？ X towa nan desu ka?
2) Yとはどういう意味ですか？ Y towa douiu imi desu ka?
3) Zは日本語で何と言いますか？ Z wa nihongo de nan to iimasu ka?
Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Out-of-date English slang
Many slang expressions may survive for years and eventually become standard, but most of them get old-fashioned within several years or several months. Still we may hear those out-of-date slang expressions today on old TV re-runs, old fllms or even in ordinary conversation.
If you come across such out-of-date English slang, please post it here. Additional informtion on the meanings and/or most up-to-date alternative expressions will be highly appreciated. Let's roll!

Masculine words & feminine words
Though I think most of English words can be used both by men and by women equaly, they say some words may sound masculine or feminine when used in speech.
I found a blog on the other day stating that words like "wonderful", "lovely", ”oh my goodness!” "I'm terribly sorry" sound quite feminine while men would prefer to use "nice" or "I'm really sorry." Would you agree with that? Could you give me some other examples that particularly sound feminine or masculine?

2. Which one do you think the best is?
3. Which one do you think it is the best?
4. Which one is the best in your opinion?
5. Which one is the best that you think?

Looking for a conjugation reference book in Italian
I think Bescherelle's "la conjugaison pour tous" is one of the best conjugation references for French. Now I am looking for an equivalent item for Italian verbs. Do you have any suggestion? Thank you.

Je veux comprendre les lyriques des chansons par Renaud
J'aime les chansons de Renaud quoiqu' il y a beacoup des argots que je ne comprend pas bien. Quelqu'un peut m'expliquer ses lyrics comme "Mistral Gagnant" ou "Manu" en anglais, SVP?
