Default Impossible English Translation of Bangla words

The other day I was just checking out my little nieces new dress and the way she was trying to show it off. I made a comment saying... 'ehhh futani'. She was like '"Futani" mane ki.. what is "futani"? I took a pause but could not find a perfect a english translated word for it. Then I thought there are more for which I do not think there are any perfect/equivalent English words. These words only meant to be used in Bangla - how cool is it!

- Futani
- Tamsha
- Joss
- Fatafati
- Atlami
- Pospass

anyone has any more?
