I tried Babelfish online - it translates "bimbo" into, well, "bimbo".does the word "bimbo" mean something in Spanish other than what it is slang for in English?
From Wikipedia:More here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BimboBimbo is a term that emerged in popular English language usage in the early 20th century to describe an often physically attractive, unintelligent woman. Use of this term began in the United States as early as 1919.[citation needed] The 1929 silent film Desert Nights describes a wealthy female crook as a bimbo. In The Broadway Melody, the winner of Best Picture for the same year, an angry Bessie Love calls a chorus girl a bimbo. This word derives from the Italian bimbo[citation needed], derived from bambino (Italian for child), a masculine-gender term that means (male) baby or very young (male) child (its feminine equivalent is bimba).
