@jonggam82: BUM is a soft way to say it. Teachers or parents won't get mad if you say it. BUTT is a little more harsh, but still OK in most situations. ASS can be rude, especially in formal situations.

@jonggam82: The meaning of them are all the same, but they're used in different situations. It's similar to 저 and 나 in Korean. Same meaning, different use.

@jonggam82: Thanks. ASS is often sexual or aggressive, e.g., "I'm gonna kick your ass!" In English you could also say BEHIND, which is safe in any situation.

@tomm: Buttocks is the medical word. Some people use it sometimes as a joke, but it's not so common in everyday conversation. It's safe in any situation and not rude.

Hip is a different area. The butt is on the back side. The hip is kind of on the sides. I think most native English speakers think of "hip bones" when you say hip.
