ANCIENT GREEKS HAD SHARE OF DIRTY WORDS

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- It looks like the ancient Greeks were just as kinky as modern folks -- especially when it came to their language. According to the new book, "Depraved English" (St. Martin's Press), the Greeks used all sorts of naughty words such as "bathycolpian" (bath-ik-ALL-pee-an), which means "has deep cleavage." Other Grecian dirty words that are still in modern dictionaries include... -- "Callipygian" (kal-ip-EYE-gee-an), which means "having nicely shaped buttocks." -- "Iatronudia" (eye-at-ro-NOO-dee-uh). It's a condition where a woman pretends to be sick so she can disrobe in front of a doctor. -- The Greeks even had a word for times when you're sexually turned off by your partner's B.O.: "Ozoamblyrosis" (oh-zo-am- blih-RO-sis).
