The English verb "befoul" was coined during the early 14th century, combining "be-" + "foul".

What does 'an befoul gaelice agat' mean?

The phrase "an befoul gaelice agat" appears to be a mix of languages and does not translate directly. However, "gaelice" suggests a connection to Gaelic, possibly referring to the Gaelic language or culture. "Agat" means "at you" or "with you" in Irish. The context of "befoul" is unclear, as it is an English word meaning to make dirty or to sully. Overall, the phrase seems to imply a negative connotation related to Gaelic in some way, but its exact meaning isn't clear without additional context.

What does semen or ejaculate taste like?

The flavor of ejaculate differs from person to person, based on their own inherent scents, diet, environment, if they smoke and so on. While I've yet to encounter someone who actually liked its taste, more than one source has advised that beer and cigarettes befoul the flavor, and parsley (amongst other leafy iron rich vegetables) vastly improves the flavor. Hence:If you want him/her to swallow, eat your veggies. And...When he/she does swallow, recognize it for the act of love it is.
