Found another two missing words in English yesterday: "trudnica" (pregnant woman) and "bolesnik" (ill person).>>>
>>>How about "genetalian", or "gravida" as a noun
>>
>>You said it: as a noun. IOW, there's no such noun in English.

>>> and "invalid" (using a classical definition).

>The Inuit have something like 48 words for snow. Does yours have 49 or more < s >
