Hi All;

a friend got an email with the folloing in it:
warning: I think it's highly offensive

Select to view spoiler:


cheen-nuk



i thought it might have been a chinese expression from Flyfly but couldn't find it. I have looked around but no go.

Anyone able to help?

Extreme apologies if the expresion offends which is why it's hidden.

Thanks all. GL.

It's a type of salmon.

And a military transport helicopter

Sounds Native American. I do know that whe-nuk means p&$%y (trying to be clean here folks)in Indian. Not really sure but it doesn't sound chinese.

Spelled different:

Chinook Salmon

Chinook Helicopter(Boeing CH-47)

Gotta admit that was my first thought too :)

I googled it and nothing remotely close came up.

But I went to www.urbandictionary.com and a lot of stuff came up. So without seeing your friends email as a reference it could mean a multitude of things, some good some bad.

In Irish slang, "Cheen" usually refers to a hot Irish chick, the same way you would use the word "hottie" or "babe".
