Most guys and some females in the UK call it Wanking or to have a wank! Others to have a ''Play". The term Jerk in Britian is used to describe someone as an idiot. Jerking off is only used in U.S porn films...
 
the question was about language, wasn't it? so here are some possibilities to say it in german:

most comon: wichsen

masturbieren

onanieren

"sich einen von der palme wedeln"

"sich einen runterholen"

"Handbetrieb"
 
Jackin Off when I was younger.

Self Pleasuring sounds so nice today
!!!!!!!!!
 
Before Law School: Flogging Hostage

After: Banging my gavel

And as a former girfriend would say (when I wasn't there to help out): Playing hide the finger
 
In popular Iitalian the most common is "farsi una sega" which is "to wank", while "i wank" is "mi faccio una sega".

More polite is "masturbarsi" "to masturbate".

Others are "farsi una pippa", "segarsi", "menarselo", "lucidarsi il piffero".

With regard to that expression, those on the other side of the pond might be surprised to know that one of the big movie hits here in Germany two years back was a PG-rated detective spoof titled Der Wixxer [literally, "The Wanker"] which was promoted with the tag-line "He's coming!" and featured character names including Miss Drycunt and The Earl of Cockwood. :rolleyes:

I concur, definately "wanking".
 
The proper term for it in Chinese is "shou yin" which translates as "lewdness of the hand.

I just call it my morning exercise.

By the way, the joke I heard about the solo activity was,

"Which is the most sensitive part of your body when you are masturbating? Your ears."
 
There was some bad 80's metal band called Skrapp Mettle that had a song called Shake the Monster. It had lyrics like "Gotta wrap your hands right around his throat/ squeeze every drop out, don't get none on your coat." They had some other pretty absurd song titles, too, like Spunk Sandwich, Sherbert Machine, Slap Little Johnny Behind the Ear, and Swallow That Load. Their cd is out of print.
