round here it'd be something near the 'jam'n toast', innit.

I've got some luvly pix of a coast at my site. (In 'places'.) It's the UK south coast.

Hebrew: sfaht hayam (the lip of the sea).

Oastcay (piglatin)

In Spanish, "litoral" would be more like "coastline."

Ah! the subtleties of free translators...

... that or a good fabada.

One can is enough.

Ignacio, LOL!

English: seashore.

Dutch: kust
Welsh: arfordir

C�sta (Irish Gaelic, thingy over 'o' know as a fada.)

is it spelled 'fada' and not 'fatha' which is how it more said???

ie. see, oh fatha, esss, tee , ay..

In Russian it's 'bereg'.

That is, in caps that would spell 0411 0415 0420 0415 0413, and in l.c. 0431 0435 0440 0435 0433.

Of course, there are other words too, but 'bereg'
sounds the snappiest, and looks very elegant, very rhythmic, in both upper and lower case.

The most common Latin word would be ora which means an edge or boundary, but which is applied to the coast also.

Here are a few from dictionaries that I am fairly sure of:

In Indonesian it is pantai.

In Dutch it is kust, while in Afrikaans it is kus.

My favourite may be the Tagalog (Philippines) word pampang.

I think in Swahili it is pwani, but can't guarantee that.

Armenian: ap (ayb,piwr in Unicode spelling)
It also means the palm of the hand.

Seashore: dzovap (the "dz" one sound)
Lake shore: ljap
River shore: kedap (getap in Eastern pronunciation)

In Arabic it's shatt (with a doubled deep "t" - tah in Unicode spelling).
Unless that means gulf, I'm not sure - sorry.

Vincent, the spelling is fada, it's the letter sounds that are different in Gaelic.

breton -> aod

Arabic: Shatt is spoken Arabic for beach (the sand or rock bit), Shatti' is the formal Arabic. Coast would be sahil (FEB3 FE8E FEA3 FEDE, h being the undotted jim lookalike and not the heh). Gulf would be khaleej.

Hope this helps.
