- ASalazarMX 5d agoThere's an identical expression in Spanish, someone has a "cat's tongue" when they don't tolerate hot food. https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/lengua-de-gato.3227595/ https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/lengua-de-gato.32275... (Spanish discussion) But why does Japan write different "cat's tongue" (the body part) than "cat's tongue" ラング・ド・シャ (the pastry)? https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B0%E3%83%BB%E3%83%89%E3%83%BB%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A3 https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B0%E3...
