Obscenities

I just picked up "The Dictionary of Russian Obscenities"
and it is HILARIOUS! :lol:

sorry just had to share

It's always hilarious to compare the ways people of different nations use to swear. ;)

Yeah, I must have a pretty low sense of humor.

But there are words for things that in English would take ten!
And they sound so dirty! :twisted:

It would be nice of you to share with us and enlighten us! :roll:

i thought i would get kicked off the boards or something :lol:

example:
подмахивать: said of a woman to wiggle the buttocks during sexual intercourse
обосранный: to be covered with feces
:oops:

yes, now I recall the second word, but I am unfamiliar with the first one. :)

I am. )))) Not that I've heard it in real life (nobody shares with me such intimate detailes, thanks god), but I saw it quite often in books.

The question arises what is "obscene language". "Обосранный" is used even by kids, it's much ruder that other equivalents. But is it obscene?

I don't think that word "обосранный" and his variants it is an obscene. Using pritty often and even don't sound vulgar though. In any case it's much better than "мат". Imho.

Just to nitpick: -ый is an adjective, thus "covered..." without 'to be'.

haha you guys are crazy :lol:

Unfortunately, I've yet to be exposed to hardly any native Russian speakers, so I really don't know what's obscene and what's not. I'm sure this little pocket dictionary is not entirely accurate anyways. It's quite entertaining, however. :D

As for my grammar: Я очень плохо в обоих языках.

So what is considered the worst Russian swear word? What is the equivalent of the f-word (as a general sentence intensifier) in Russian?

I heard kids using quite a vocabulary. The words that turned red even my face and believe me, I've heard much :lol2:

Have fun. I think there's no need to repeat it all over again. Just search for the word 'мат' through the forum here. I think you'll find those threads *very* entertaining :lol2:

The question that matters is does the word "обосранный" turn red your face? I doubt it. :)
