embrasser avec la langue, rouler une pelle (kissing with the tongue, "rolling a shovel")
frites (fries)
Michael Barnes
French kiss: beijo de língua (tongue kiss)
French fries: batatas fritas (fried potatoes). Confusingly enough colonials have another recipe they call also "batata frita".
Spanish flu: gripe espanhola (same)
Swiss Army knife: canivete suíço (Swiss butterfly-knife)
Russian roulette: roleta russa (same)
Brazilian nut: castanha-do-pará (Pará's nut, after the state that produces it)
English muffin: N/A, nobody eats this here. The nearest I've found in Portuguese is a similar dish made in Madeira, called "bolo do caco" (slab cake).
Irish twins: I had to google this, no way there's a Portuguese equivalent for that.
