Does anyone know
Does anyone know how long "sandwich" has been used to describe the sexual activity? Karmosin 00:04, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Since the evening after its invention. — LlywelynII  12:52, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Pronunciation
This may be dialectal, but around here (London), the middle consonant cluster is often realised as or, not. Is this just a dialect-specific result of allophony between and, or an actual alternative pronunciation that should be listed? --88.110.61.186 13:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Verifiable or otherwise widespread dialectal pronunciations should be listed, yes, but certainly accurately marked as such. — Vildricianus 18:09, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Similarly, Americans are apt to pronounce it or even, leading to the eye dialect sammich. See also M-W.  — ˈzɪzɨvə 16:47, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Well many English people say or {{IPAchar|[ˈsæ̃wɪdʒ]}

 I have definitly heard of the sexual sense used as per the definition. --Dmol 15:39, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) (sexual slang) sexual activity involving a passive sex partner penetrated by two penises and/or dildoes simultaneously in the vagina and/or anus
 * 2) folkloric figureQuerying the sexual sense, and "folkloric figure" (which doesn't tell us much) &mdash; Paul G 14:35, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I recall hearing a sexual sense that is a more basic equivalent of a ménage à trois (which may just be a specific usage of sense 2). bd2412 T 04:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Quick google search shows lots of "sandwich" pictures involving two penises, but not quite the definition provided. Have therefore removed the def. pending a better definition. Have also removed the folkloric figure one, as I couldnt find anything at all and have no clue as to what it means. Andrew massyn 19:13, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Polish translation "kanapka" is correct, but I don't know how to remove it from translations to be checked :P Fiedore

'Snack'
A sandwich (like any light food) may be eaten as a snack but sandwiches are not definitionally snacks. — LlywelynII  12:52, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

Belgian special bread
In Belgium, if you say 'sandwich' you mean a special kind of oblong little bread out of a Brioche-like dough. It's not something that really exists outside of Belgium I think, but I think it would be interesting to add (especially because the word sandwich is almost never used in the same sense as in English). Only I don't really know how.


 * Not related to sandwich bread I suppose? Equinox ◑ 12:48, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
