Word of the Week

Written by admin on 7 May, 2009 – 7:55 am -

Inspired by a headline following Barcelona’s injury time equaliser / winner against Chelsea last night in the Champions League semi-final, the word of the week is

beffare

to mock, to laugh at

  • Chelsea beffata dal Barcellona e dall’arbritro Chelsea mocked by Barcelona and the referee

I’m sure not that many people were upset to see an English team get knocked out!
