<p><b>New page</b></p><div>A word with many meanings in the cultures of the Discworld. <br />
<br />
In Betrobi it means "Highly enjoyable!" <br />
<br />
In [[Howondaland]] ''Arghh!'' translates variously as "Your wife is a big hippo!" "I would like to eat your foot!" and "Hello, Thinks Mr Purple Cat!" <br />
<br />
In a curiously unnamed as yet Howondish tribe ''Arghh!'' is rumored to translate as "Quick! Extra boiling oil!" Apparently, the Emperor of the [[Agatean Empire]] has heard this translation, as when a staff member of his uttered "Arghh!" upon being sentenced to horrible death, the Emperor commented, "Yes indeed. Lots of... boiling oil."<br />
<br />
In Old Ankhian it means "I say, old chap, you seem to have thrust a sword {spear, pointy stick, etc.} into my bowels. Bad show!" <br />
<br />
In street-[[Morporkian]] it has acquired the meaning, "Hey! What are you doing! That HURTS! Sod Y...."<br />
<br />
See footnote in [[Interesting Times]].<br />
