Hehehe nope

What does grillagé derrière translate into?

I do believe that grillage ..... means crossed timbers ...heavy wood framework or steel beams to sustain a foundation, especially on yielding soils....or base..

Now... I am guessing that derriere means.....backside hindparts or buttocks....
....so if we amalgamate the two words I would hazard a guess to say probably a support, probably corset....but the timber bit makes it puzzling....
Obvousily a base/bottom support......could mean different things depending on the contents & contex structure of the sentence it is used in....

Is that close... do I get any points for trying this game?

Grillage: wet or soft foundation=wet nappy or a dunny seat:? :? :? :?

[Shedhand]

Something to do with the inside of a boat or skiff without lining. Maybe a grill like setup or lattice to hold a seat. [shrugging]

[funkychicken]

Nope.

Hint: It's French

hehe

I was lazy and used an online translator.
"fitted latticework on behind" was the answer, my question is how do I fit it?:rolleyes: :oo:

Now you've got the second word right, and you're kinda on track with the first.

I was also lazy and used an online translator. So it's probably wrong:roll:

Funky CStitched up arze? :D

[funkychicken]

Allright you were close enough. It means, "webbed buttocks"

[kekemo]

Didn't think I did too bad at all......
crossed timbers......
base support or foundation timbers...
not bad for aussie chick!

Who gets to ask the next question...?????

[Frank&Earnest]

Funky, what do you mean with "webbed buttocks"? Does it make sense in any context? If instead of being lazy, as you said, you had done a bit more homework, you would have found that "grillagé derrière" generally refers to a motor vehicle "with the air vent (grille) behind".

I claim the right to the next question. What does "dannato lazzarone" mean? (hint: it is Italian):D

[BobL]

RE:I claim the right to the next question. What does "dannato lazzarone" mean? (hint: it is Italian):D

Literal translation is "dammed scoundrel" but maybe "slack bastard" is closer to the intent, that's well, that's how I heard it used on building sites anyway.

[Frank&Earnest]

Close enough... but you have been in bad company.:D Both translations are ok, albeit rather pejorative, in the right context. Best one, both literally and in this context, is "damned slacker". Your turn!:)

[shaver59]

Ok I thought you might have been a square/triangular number, ie 1, 36, 1225 etc etc ok maybe you're a set square.

[mic-d]
