English term or phrase: hor

Se trata de un monólogo cómico (del tipo Club de la Comedia) y hay algunos juegos de palabras que no sé como traducir. Otro ejemplo es la palabra "hor", que en este contexto tiene doble significado - se refiere a "whore" y "horse". Me resulta difícil encontrar un correspondiente que desde el punto de vista fonético pueda remplazar "hor".

The Princess of Japan says to me…I’m not kidding…“I…like…‘hor.’ In my head, this is the…little story, “The Princess of Japan just called me a whore!” So then she takes her hand and she has a piece of peach in her little royal hand and she leans it towards me and says, ‘Hor’…eat…fruit.” And behind me, there’s a horse, a policeman on a horse.

Muchas gracias.
