Some time ago I got the idea that Heller had made a model of the French Navy's escort carrier Dixmude. This ship was formerly HMS Biter. Using Google's translation facility I was surprised to find references to HMS F*cker and HMS to F*ck. I know the Royal Navy has had some pretty rum names for its ships over the years, but this seemed to be going a bit far.
Trawling through the memory banks, it occurred to me that bite (along with chipolata and many others) is French slang for the male member, and biter the informal verb for its second most useful (if not second most enjoyable) function. Though I suppose this could depend on immediate needs and how many pints one has downed.
Beware of translation programs!
