Thread: Swearing.

I know that this topic might not be acceptable here, but I'm going to try it anyway.

I was wondering if a native speaker would perhaps teach me a few Russian swear words and/or phrases. As I have mentioned in another post I am in a Chekhov play and a few of my fellow actors want to preserve our tradition of having an inside joke for the final performance that we use to try an make each other laugh. They all want me to try to find some Russian curse word(s) to use. Therefore, I'm here asking you all.

Admins, if you don't like this post or whatever, just delete it. I won't make a fuss.

I bought "***: The Real Russian Tolstoy Never Used"

<a href = "http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0452277450/102-4412513-1819322?v=glance&n=283155&n=507846&s=books&v=glanc e" target = "blank"> Here</a>

I'm not sure how good it really is, but it seems pretty good... Maybe a native speaker has seen it and can tell if it's good or not?

The only bad thing about it (I think, I can't remember if this is the one) is that it doesn't have the cyrillic spelling of the words, only phonetic. Maybe that was another book, I don't remember now, and it's at home...

In this book the russian words haven't accent marks so you will not know how to pronounce they.

Some swear phrases:
"Мосьё, вы наигнуснейший негодяй и подлец, какого когда-либо носила земля! Вы отвратительный червь, пожирающий отбросы!"

It has the cyrillic, just not the accent marks as vitovio said.

aah, that's what it was missing... I bought like 30 books for Russian grammar and in Russian, I get them confused easily!
