Just happened accidentally to find this site:
http://www.insultmonger.com/swearing/index.htm
Short description in the front page: "Swearsaurus is the world's largest resource of multilingual swearing. It will teach you a vast array of swearing, profanity, obscenity, blasphemy, cursing, cussing, and insulting in a massive 165 languages - because it's good to experience cultural diversity!"
Unfortunately most of the swear words I found are lame, too predictable crap of e.g. natural bodily functions, parts of the body and products of the metabolic processes. However, as an example I'll offer you some very interesting sayings - go and find out what they mean in English:
Some phrases in my dear mother language (Finnish)
Voi vittujen kev?t ja kyrpien takatalvi! (This is what I use sometimes when something goes wrong and I feel annoyed. May not sound as funny as it does in Finnish though.)
P??ss?si tekee paska patoja ja kusi puroja (Little children are always fascinated by this phrase! Too childish LOL.)
Kuse muuntajaan! (Wow, I've never heard this before - the actual deed must be pretty effective.)
?itisi nai poroja (Not a very original one, but with cultural flavour, as Finns and Lapps are raising reindeers for the living in Lapland.)
This will finally prove that Finns and Estonians are very close language relatives indeed. However, I would've never imagined THIS close!
Finnish: Ved? vittu p??h?n ja pakene vuorille
Estonian: T?mba nahk p?he ja jookse m?gedessse.
And what about eloquently recommending a Norwegian to shut up?
Vess du fan ikke kan oppf?r d? ?rntli s? ska ? stapp h?ue ditt opp i r?va di, s? kan du sett d?r, aleina i m?rtna, ? prat mannskit me d? sj?l.
OK, that was enough. Have fun! :twisted:
