“Verb: To give forth a trumpet-like sound; specifically to break wind audibly. Noun: The act of breaking wind audibly.” This is from the Oxford English Dictionary, the definitive work on the English language.
To put it basically, in English, a “Trump” is a noisy fart. This is likely to be confusing to many Asians because they often mistake “American” for “English”. The mistake is easy to make because English people can understand what is being said when two Americans talk to each other, however, Americans can never understand what is being said when two English people talk to each other. Simply, English and American are two different languages. This is amply illustrated by “Trump”, in English it means “noisy fart”, in American it means “the President”. Asians need to be careful when talking to foreigners, you’ll need to know if the person you are talking to is English or American. You don’t want to confuse a President with a noisy fart. You might think the problem can be avoided by always using the word “fart” instead of “trump”. Unfortunately, in English the word “fart” is considered vulgar and “trump” is much more polite. In American it is the opposite. Trump is far more vulgar than a fart. You might want to think about what a Trump is. At an ordinary level its just a smelly hot gas coming out of a small hole. “A noxious vapour” is a better way of describing it. Really, it is “methane” which is highly unpredictable and explosive, it can be set off with the slightest spark. One thing is for sure, you will always know when there is a Trump, because everybody wants to get away from it as quickly as possible. Methane is also a greenhouse gas and the main factor in global warming and climate change. Most of this gas comes from Cow Trumps. Many experts now believe that climate change will destroy the planet. So, it seems that the world will come to an end not with a bang but a Trump.
