sticky, the noun[edit]

i've added the sticky as the (usually red) mark thats left once you get kissed by someone wearing lipstick. Can someone verify this (Im not a native, I also havent found it in three English-German dictionaries (google, LEO, pons), but an American offered me a sticky (and also verified the spelling)) Thanks --Moritz der Moralapostel 00:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC).Reply

That's new to me. I'd call it a lipstick mark...or describe it with a full sentence (as a lipstick mark can be even the slightest smudge.) As far as I know, English doesn't have a word for it, specifically. But calling it a sticky, I wouldn't know what you were talking about. --Connel MacKenzie 01:12, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
