Script error: No such module "Lang". (or Script error: No such module "Lang"., similar to "dick-slap"[1]) is to hit one's soft or semi-erect penis — often repeatedly — against an object or another person's body. Script error: No such module "Lang". is Dutch and was named as the word of the year in the Netherlands and Belgium in 2008.

The act of Script error: No such module "Lang". often takes place in the form of teasing, crude humor, or a degrading context, but it can also be a sexual act. When the act is practiced on a person, it is often the person's cheek that is hit with the flaccid or semi-hard penis. Similar terms exist in other languages.

Origin

The term "Script error: No such module "Lang"." is believed to have originated in English-speaking areas.[2] It is believed to originate from Dutch words meaning swing, sway and swoop, as well as the German words for tail or penis (Script error: No such module "Lang". and Script error: No such module "Lang".).[2][3]

Australian English (turkey-slap)

Turkey-slap is another term for Script error: No such module "Lang"..[citation needed] The phrase gained notoriety in Australia during 2006, after two male contestants, Ashley Cox and John Bric, in the Big Brother reality TV series performed the act on a female housemate, Camilla Severi. In the ensuing controversy, the male housemates were expelled from the house and contest for violating the show's terms of agreement.[4][5][6]

Dutch (Script error: No such module "Lang".)

In April 2008, the term received wide media attention in the Netherlands and Belgium,[7][8] when a Dutch student committed the act on the Taj Mahal and uploaded the video to YouTube. The student was suspended for this action.[9][10]

In response, the BNN TV program Spuiten en Slikken invited viewers to make their own videos of other objects being swaffeled. They also called for a BNN Nationale Swaffeldag (BNN National Swaffel Day) to be declared.[11] The Royal Palace of Amsterdam and the Basilica of Saint Servatius in Maastricht were among the objects swaffeled in the submissions.

In 2015 a firefighter in Enkhuizen was fired for swaffeling a colleague.[12]

When the topic of swearing in various languages arose, in episode 4, series N, of the British panel show QI, one of the show's panelists, Jeremy Clarkson, mentioned the word,[13] defining it as "...to bang your penis against the Taj Mahal."
