Hi everyone,

-> Why pain is expressed differently in different languages
Pain is universal. Its expression is not.
Bang! "Ow!"
You probably have some idea of what just happened there. A collision or explosion of some kind, or perhaps a gunshot. Then someone voicing sharp pain, but probably not excruciating or fatal.

Thanks Gérard for that. I had never been aware of  this. It's food for thought.
