Que Pedo

In the world of languages its hard to imagine how different a language can be from region to region, from culture to culture, until you actually go and experience those places. In time you find out how the more important the thing is culturally, the more influential it is in the language.
In some Scandinavian languages there are 5, 6, maybe even 7 words for snow...because that is just how much of an impact it has on people's lives.
Here in Honduras, however, there's no snow. But there is a very basic diet of rice, beans, and eggs...
Such a diet can mean many things from Overweight people to people with very good muscles...but here it mostly means flatulence. People here fart and aren't afraid to admit it. They let it rip and its not even a side thought.
Farting is so prevalent in this society that it even makes its way into the common form of communication.
As you walk down the road or sidewalk and meet up with a friend the say "Hola, Que pedo?"
"Hey, what's the fart?"
That's the language here, because that's one of the most noticeable things in life here in Honduras...constant flatulence.
