Supposedly verlan of putain = whore. google hits for "une tainpe" don't help --Rising Sun talk? 10:47, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Well, the four hits(!) do use it in the right context, but it does look like a protologism (i.e. not actually in use). Mglovesfun (talk) 10:52, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- La tainpe gets 8 hits, so still only 12 on all of Google. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:55, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Not that this is a citation, but it's in my Larousse Dictionnaire du Français argotique et populaire. Ƿidsiþ 12:06, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- ....and there are many other google hits -- "fils de tainpe", "les tainpes", "grosse tainpe" and many others all get results. You hear it in rap songs quite often, but I can't seem to find any good lyrics out there.. Ƿidsiþ 12:11, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- Now cited, so striking. Ƿidsiþ 08:20, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
