Hello everybody! I added this discussion 3 years ago! (when I became an EC member!) I've seen now that just Nafis replied to me back then, so thank you guys for bringing this discussion back to life! Now it seems less lame XD
Thanks a lot for sharing the word (and the sound) 'kiss' in your language.
A big 'muah' for you all!

Dear Mary, in persian we have two words: Mach (a:) and Buss(u:) . The first word sounds like smooch in UK and the last one has two s in common with English.
It's Chummi or Puppy in Urdu and in classical Urdu it is Bosa. And for the French, never say to an English speaking person, I want to "smack" you on your face. :)
Pusa in Czech :D and it is funny we have verb "muckat" [mutskat] - to kiss - but sth kinda informal...which is as I can see kinda similar to Turkish "muck" :)

Dear Mary! What a nice discussion!
In Russian it is "potseluy", in Ukrainian it is "tsylunock"
this was about the sound.. For the linguistic meaning, it has two forms:
- one which is formal (old-fashion). It is "Qublah" the noun, and "Yuqabbel" the verb.
- the other which is informal (spoken). it is "Bosa" the noun, and "Yabos" the verb.
Sending you my mmmmmmmmmmmmuahs one more time :D
