    Which term would you prefer for the term "Spoils of War"?

    i'm taking this survey because last week, I had to translate an Arabic word to English and the dictionary gave different words for "Spoils of War".

    If you can guess which term I chose, you get brownie points. Post it below. xD It's not that hard.

    I don't know why the word booty reminds me of this utterly delicious snack me and my friend used to devour back in grad school on daily basis we couldn't stop so we decided never to buy it.. it was a strange rabid addiction

    lol, I don't think anyone is interested in my definition or thoughts of the word booty. Or even if they are, I don't think I should post it as an administrator. -sighs-

    But I'm surprised. I'm the only one that voted for booty? I don't understand you people. That one's the most hilarious definition of them all!
