minus-squareIonAddis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year ago “Eikel” is somewhat equivalent to “asshole”. The word means either “acorn” or the glans of a penis. I’m American, but isn’t the Brit insult “bell-end” similar to this?
minus-squareSkull giver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoThat sounds about right. Bell-end, knobhead, dickhead, they all refer to the tip of the penis, but in Dutch the word also has an innocent form.
