I'm in for Stalker.

My favorite clean word is "cañafistola". Its a term that I read in an old book that I can't remember the name (perhaps El Señor Presidente, but I'm not sure). The character who say it was an old man that use it when he was surprised or pissed (as far I can recall). Among other archaic expressions and words, I think he also says: "¡Por mis polainas!" also in the same context as the first word.
I read that book when I was very young (maybe 10 or 12) and I find it so funny that until this day I smile when I say it :D
Thanks for this giveaway!  :-)

itchanddino: I accidentally let my NWN code from preordering the Witcher 3 expire, and I don't want to let my current ones go to waste. I'm a little bummed that gog isn't in Spanish yet, so let's start to change that! All you have to do is say what you favorite word in Spanish is and why (try to keep it clean!).

Mine is sacapuntas (pencil sharpener). I was once talking to a friend's dad who is a native speaker, and he wanted me to say something to him in Spanish. I remembered sacapuntas from grade school, and once I said it he just burst out laughing.

Anyway, here is what's up for grabs:
Sim City 2000
STALKER Clear Sky
The Witcher
The Witcher 2

Like a scammer will be like "Oh, snap.... Now I can't participate" after reading this :D
Thanks for the giveaway +rep

I only know usual spanish words like hola, vamos, por favor etc.... I've never been in Spain or any spanish-speaking countries and I've never met any spanish speaking person irl, sadly :(

So maybe my favourite word is cerveza, probably because i really would like to drink a cold bottle of it right now :)

I'm in for Witcher
I played a lot with witcher 2 but I never had the chance to try the first one, i know it is shame :P

They expire? My preorder NWN key says "expire: never" when I open the redeem page

I think you’re right, for some reason I had an expiration date written down next to my code, but the link does say NEVER. I’ll have to use it in a future giveaway, thanks!

ElPrimordial – STALKER
Bela555 – The Witcher
Zevri – Sim City 2000 or The Witcher 2

Thank you to everyone who participated in this giveaway, I learned a lot of new words and phrases! I’ll be sending out PMs to the winners in a few minutes.
