AT&T doesn't know Dutch[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#7)

AT&T's policy of banning usernames containing "kill"  is going to anger people who know Dutch. In Dutch, it means "creek" or "stream" and is a part of many place names. Near New York City, founded by the Dutch as New Amsterdam, we have Peekskill, Fishkill, and Kill van Kull.

Just about every pronounceable string of letters is acceptable in some language. The F word is a common syllable in Dutch, and the S word is common in Japanese and Hebrew.

-- Josh Rubin, who has some Dutch ancestors
