Aren't these Czech words great?
Přiotrávit--to almost poison
Sezvánět--to call together with bells
"Přiotrávit" is is apparently more of the "Oops, I accidentally put the wrong mushrooms in this soup" as opposed to "Darn, I didn't put enough arsenic in his food" or "Wait, dear, don't drink that. I do love you after all."
"Sezvánět" isn't much in common usage anymore...but seriously, how beautiful would it be to call people together with bells?
I love words like these.
