Vafunculo! (or Vai a fare in culo). One of the first phrases I learned when I was living in Italy many years ago. It basically means "Go ***** yourself"! Sounds so much nicer in Italian!

"Salchichas" Spanish for sausages
Also "Infarto"! Although it has the much darker meaning of heart-attack, it's a word that makes me giggle

Shadenfreude - roughly meaning 'a wicked satisfaction at the misfortune of others' (especially when they are generally seen as deserving of this misfortune).

Trust the Germans to have a special word to sum-up this whole feeling

Favourite German word at the moment: Oachkatzlschwoaf

It's a word in an Austrian dialect for Eichhörnchenschweif, which is the tail of a squirrel - great fun to get people to try and say!
