The term ass covers a lot of territory including the two you mentioned, both with and without a prefix. Steve In the US, the terme "arse" is well known. We understand it to be "ass" with a British drawl. This is not meant to imply that our understanding is in anyway correct, but the word is known. |

But "arse" does demarcate that space encircled by the sphincter from the donkey. -- - Billy Mad dog Republicans to the right. Democratic spider webs to the left. True conservatives, and liberals not to be found anywhere in the phantasmagoria of the American political landscape. America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich. http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/.../michael-moore /michael-moore-says-400-americans-have-more-wealth-/ |

It'd be good if you mob would adopt the spelling if it's well known. Donkeys are delightful animals and I'm sure must object vociferously to such abusive mangling of their name. |
