B1🔤 Letters F & G
Italian word
guancia
cheek (of the face)
Looks like
quench
to satisfy thirst; to put out a fire
⚠️ The trap
Guancia = cheek (face). It sounds vaguely like 'quench' but has no connection. 'Quench your thirst' = 'dissetarsi' in Italian.
To say "to satisfy thirst; to put out a fire" in Italian:
spegnere (for quench/put out); dissetarsi (for quench thirst)
"guancia" in English means:
cheek (of the face)
Example
"Mi ha dato un bacio sulla guancia."
"She gave me a kiss on the cheek."
