"Bromoform" is a word in ENGLISH
A colorless liquid, CHBr3, having an agreeable odor and
sweetish taste. It is produced by the simultaneous action of bromine
and caustic potash upon wood spirit, alcohol, or acetone, as also by
certain other reactions. In composition it is the same as chloroform,
with the substitution of bromine for chlorine. It is somewhat similar
to chloroform in its effects.

Every Spanish love song that contains the word corazon, which is all of them, would contain the somewhat less lilting higado, and bumper stickers would proclaim, "I [liver symbol] my Pekingese.
