I want to take back ‘Retard’. Because I want it to apply to things that are infuriatingly stupid, instead of it being used as a derogatory term towards special needs people.

not sure what “rest of the world” is because there’s so many languages. i know that portuguese calls it “abacaxi” (“xi” is pronounced “she”)
Ah, there’s an old image showing this. I guess it’s not ananas in every language, but it is a lot of them!
Here’s the image
Portuguese is even on this list, but modified with (eu). What does that mean?
Probably, like Spanish, that it has a separate language spun off in Latin America that’s “the same language” but only mostly. I think they branch more than, e.g., a southern dialect vs England, but I don’t know enough of the different versions to know if that’s real or not.
EU means Europe (so european portuguese), which has a few more pronounced differences compared to brazilian portuguese compared to the difference between US english and UK english
