Dear belMarduk: So a Yank using his highschool French, trying to say "Kiss me" could get a knuckle sandwich!
baiser
[beh zay]
to kiss
Les hommes ne baisent plus les mains des femmes. - Men don't kiss women's hands any more.
Note: Baiser is also a vulgar slang term, depending on the context. In the above sentence, it is obvious that baiser means kiss. In a sentence like « Il m'a baisée » of course the listener would hear "He f...ed me." Basically, if you have any doubts, find another verb for kiss, like embrasser.
(vulgar slang) - to outdo, to be had; to have sex
Il s'est fait baisé - He was really had/outdone.
Related: un baiser - kiss; le baisement - kissing (e.g., the Pope's hand)
