Farts and Burps!




Hands up if you never ever farted or burped in your life!!
if your answer is yes,


please do not continue reading.




if your answer is no,




you can proceed with the following text :)


These are the following details that you need to know :






Fart is one of the oldest words in the English vocabulary. Its Indo-European origins are confirmed by the many cognate words in other Indo-European languages: It is cognate with Greek πέρδομαι (perdomai), Latin pēdĕre, Sanskrit pardate, Avestan pərəδaiti, French "péter", Russian пердеть (perdet') and Polish "pierd" << PIE *perd [break wind loudly] or *pezd [the same, softly], all of which mean the same thing.
The immediate roots are in the Middle English words ferten, feortanor farten; which is akin to the Old High German word ferzan.
Fart has been used to name cocktails, an example being a 'Duck fart', playing on the humorous reference to flatulence—an example of toilet humour. It has also been used in the term 'fart sack', military slang for a bed or sleeping bag.



and






Burp involves the release of gas from the digestive tract (mainly esophagus andstomach) through the mouth. It is usually accompanied with a typical sound and, at times, an odor.typically caused by swallowing air (aerophagia) when eating or drinking and subsequently expelling it, so in this case the expelled gas is mainly a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen.
