CAFUNÉ
Pronunciation = /ˌka.fu.ˈnɛ/
Pronunciation = /ˌka.fu.ˈnɛ/
This Brazilian Portuguese word means the act of tenderly running your fingers through someone’s hair to relax and soothe. More than just the action, though, the interesting thing about this word is the connotation that comes with it. There’s a clear underlying tone of fondness and often love where it’s used. Cafuné is often mentioned in lists of words that CANNOT be accurately translated into many other languages (English is one of them) precisely because of the strong emotional connotation it carries.
