Sexy Foreign Phrases by Dazzle

by Mariella Krause

Have you ever noticed how much sexier things sound when they're said in a foreign language? Given that fact, you could probably seduce somebody just by whispering the ingredients of a croque-monsieur in their ear -- provided they don't know their jambon from their fromage.

But if you really want to sound impressive, you'll want to be able to do more than just recite a grocery list. You'll want words filled with amor, fuego, and passione. And we're here to help.

We've translated some essential phrases into the most fantastically sexy and romantic languages we could find. And then we also translated them into Hungarian. Why? Because the founder of our company is Hungarian and offered to translate. Besides, you never know when you might be in Budapest and find your soulmate.

So read up, and soon you too will be speaking the international language of love.
