As for Italian, "TO" was short for "Torino" (the city of Turin) on car plates until some
years ago; it is un-commonly used as "take this" when you give something (a dish, a slap
on the face); finally, it is an interjection of surprise, spelled "to'" or "toh", used
for example when you see someone you didn't expect to see or you haven't seen for a long
time.
Yeah, I think 11to149 is OK for Italians, too. :-)))
