Really interesting answer from Draven616... that the Irish for black man is: fearr gorm (literally blue man)... I'm of half Irish & half Italian descent, and there is a common expression for the black people that sounds like "Mulin-yon"... some of you may have heard this wathcing the Sopranos, or "Mullies" for short When I studied Italian at the university level I searched in vain through Italian dictionaries for this elusive expression that I had heard my paternal gandfather use, until I found myself chatting one day after class with a guest speaker who came from near Naples. He told me that it was the Napolitan dialect for the word "Melanzane"... English translation = eggplant. It was used originally for the Africans who have that deep hue of black that is almost purple. So "blue men" doesn't seem so far fetched!!!

This is in Croatian:
-black man = crnac
-black woman = crnkinja
-black (colour) (in masculine gender) = crn
-black (colour) (in feminine gender) = crna
-black (colour) (in neuter gender) = crno.
There's a lot more to it, but I think this sounds complicated enough already :-) Speaking of sounds, the letter 'c' in Croatian sounds like 'tz' in 'Switzerland', and 'nj' is something like 'ny' in the name of 'Tanya'.

It is not right to politically delete the word for black in Spanish. Overly sensitive and paranoid, if you ask me. It is the intention, not the word!
