    That’s funny, here it’s the name of a particular type of dead-end street.

      That’s also exactly what it means in French. We use cul de sac to describe dead-ends. :)

      Yes. You could use dead-end instead of ass. That is just the origin of the term. It gets its name from the french.

      I am also from this place you speak of where the term refers to a type of street.
