I learned the Korean word for sinus the other day: 부비동/bubidong. That sounds dangerously close to booby-dong in English, and it evokes all sorts of weird body-part imagery.
TITLE: The Sinus's Structure
전두동/jeondudong: frontal sinus
사골동/sagoldong: ethmoidal (sieve-like) sinus
상악동/sang-ak dong: maxillary sinus/antrum
접형동/jeop-hyeong dong: sphenoidal (wedge-shaped) sinus
