Not entirely true: "gilipollas" is a word in official Spanish dictionary, albeit not the cleanest one, I admit. Meanwhile in South America it's very offensive and you'd better be careful when you use it. The other way around is also true: in Chile they have the "Polla de Beneficiencia" (national lottery) and I let you figure out what "polla" means in Spain Smile | :)

And what's with that k! There's no k in proper French words!

That's the English for you. Reminds me of a personal story in my first year in Quebec: I go to the auto mechanic and ask in proper French "Est-que vous pouvez vérifier les freins, s'il vous plaît?". I get a blank stare for a moment and then he goes: "Ah, tu veux checker les brakes".
