Genital Warts Coming Up On Stomach

Tangos prose

The idea was simple (on paper): meeting the two hundred most frequent words in a significant body of Argentine tangos * to be an exclusive lexicon, a private language (private all other words) **.
- Composer
then tangos in prose, not songs, watch, tangos en prose poems that would try to talk about everything except classic themes of tango (lost love, exile, melancholy, loneliness, etc.).
-
The question then was: how to express the concept of, say, "fork" in a language who do not have this word? The kind of things that fascinate me ...
-
The problem is that my case fell apart in phase 1, the harvest "statistical" words of the tango. Do this by hand, oh no! it was really too painful.
-
Too bad ...
-
* Singing, of course, and their French translations.
** But the words were authorized tools.
