fart
Fart is a word in the English language most commonly used in reference to flatulence. The word ''fart'' is often considered unsuitable in formal situations as it may be considered vulgar or offensive. ''Fart'' can be used as a noun or a verb. The immediate roots are in the Middle English words ''ferten'', ''feortan'' and ''farten'', kin of the Old High German word ''ferzan''. Cognates are found in old Norse, Slavic and also Greek and Sanskrit. The word ''fart'' has been incorporated into the colloquial and technical speech of a number of occupations, including computing.
==Etymology==
The English word ''fart'' is one of the oldest words in the English lexicon. Its Indo-European origins are confirmed by the many cognate words in some other Indo-European languages: It is cognate with Greek πέρδομαι (perdomai), as well as the Latin ''pēdĕre'', Sanskrit ''pardate'', Avestan ''pərəδaiti'', Italian ''fare un peto'', French "péter", Russian пердеть (perdet') and Polish "pierd" << PIE
*perd (wind loudly ) or
*pezd (same, softly ), all of which mean the same thing. Like most Indo-European roots in the Germanic languages, it was altered under Grimm's law, so that Indo-European ''/p/'' > ''/f/'', and ''/d/'' > ''/t/'', as the German cognate ''furzen'' also manifests.〔The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (4th edition, 2000)〕〔''Dictionnaire Hachette de la Langue Française'', (Hachette, 1995) ISBN 0-317-45629-6〕〔T.
