Do you have a pheun?
Hee hee. "There's a man in my rheum."
It sounds like something Clouseau would say... "I walked into zee door and now-a I have a bumpf on my head-a."
I have seen this spelled also as bumph.
I have a feeling it's actually a common linguistic effect, the name of (and reason for) which I forget.
My parents certainly pronounced it as if it had a 'p', probably so that it sounded like a derivative of bump rather than bum and hence less rude.
The 'p' just seems necessary in this word.
See bumf.
let me know where you would like all the bumpf to be sent and I'll get it over to you.
