Because it is the weekend I will give you an easy one: What word said the same way in all languages world wide, means the same thing in all cultures? It is not a trade name like "Coke" or "IBM", ect. It is a common, simple word you proabily have said yourself within the last couple of days.

O.K., Yes, the word is okay, I tried posting this about an hour ago, so this may come out in two posts saying the same thing.
