Fun with 漢字
"Dinosaur" (恐竜) in Chinese and Japanese is literally "terrifying dragon."
Awesome? I think so.

Dinosaur is from the Latin for "Terrible Lizard." Coincidence? I think not.
Tom knows how to say farting dragon in Chinese. He taught our mother how to say it.
Now let's be fair... I'm not sure about the translation I gave you. But I could twist it around a little to make sure it works grammatically into either "the dragon farts" or "the dragon that farts" :)
Psh whatever Tom. You're teaching our mother foul language. Gosh!
