  • damn, puti means pussy in NEpal

  • This is not a hymn, but a love song, composed in the 1950s by Tuini Ngawai.

    (You are like) a carnation flower

    (And) I'm going to pluck you

    If you were my sweetheart

    I would hold you to my breast here.

    @roadyrider

    aaaaahahahahahaa I hope there was no Spanish or Nepali speaking person; cause they would be thinking tht you have a precocious little boy. I like how kids can put random name on things, for a parent it should b a good experience. (until the it comes to a crowded restaurant lol)

  • @iduent We thought it was pretty funny...until that time in a crowded restaurant when he started screaming for "PUTI...I WANT MY PUTI"!

  • @roadyrider

    hahahaha omg thts sweet man!

    actually in this song puti reffers to carnation flower... :)

  • @iduent When my son was a baby, he started calling his pacifier a 'puti'. My wife and I still refer to them as 'puti's'! Lol

  • @roadyrider Puti in slang spanish in several countries (spain, puerto rico cuba, dominican republic and other antique spanish colonies) means prostitute. It is the diminutive expression of puta, you can also use putita.
