con = qoH
(Even though I don't have TKD at hand at least I remember that
word, because qoH sound much like Breton koc'h "shit").
"Con" < Latin cunnus (cognate with English cunt, they say)
"con" as "fool, cretin" is colloquial
"con" as "vulva/vagina" is either terribly vulgar, or shows
that you are well-read in the classics.
