    Hello !

    So I was using Google Translate for some word which I don't know in English, and by mistake I typed "Pessima"
    And google proposed me "Try in Italian" So I do it, and see what he say :
    Pessima = bad.jpg
    So I know Pessima is not Italian, but did it's an easter eggs or what ?

    If I remember correctly the pessima was meant to be the classic old grandpa car that you just want to smash, so that's maybe the origin of the name

    Anyway, there's plenty of others not English words , for example in Hirochi Raceway

    In greek, elato means fir and dromos means road. And the map is kinda a road inside a fir forest...

    There's also word plays on all of the drivers name of the rally skins:
    - D.Rivel (drivel)
    - O.Degos (Greek for guide)
    - M.Atador (matador)
    - G.Azia (Greek for stitching)
    - S.Velta (Italian for quickly)
    - L.Evis (levies)

    (google traduction was really usefull here ;))

    I'm sure there's more just waiting to be found :)

    "Gazia" indeed means stitches (with accent on "i") but it is also slang for "going at full throttle" (with accent on first "a") :) .

    "Odegos" can be used for both guide and driver in Greek.

    "Levies" is the "gear stick" in Greek.

    "Svelta" is also used in Greek for "quickly".

    Greek language is useful to create quirky names :p . But apart from Greek, we have people from all over the world so you'll also see words from various other languages too.
