1. pwns
Stemming from the misspelling of the word "owns", being that the "p" key is right next to the "o" key. It does not mean the possesive "owns", but as in a form of domination, such as in a game or sport.
e.g.
Dude, he pwns you at Halo.
He pwns all of you at basketball.

2. pwns
pwns is a term for describing the act of dominating over someone or something
that was from http://www.urbandictionary.com, a dictionary of "urban" words 8)

Altavista's babelfish should add an additional language to its translation service.
