For those of you who are multilingual from birth, do you have a preference?

[–] A_Chilean_Cyborg@feddit.cl 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Chilean Spanish is way better than English for cursing.

Not strictly, though Dutch does offer a few other fun subjects for your profanity.

[–] Willem@kutsuya.dev 4 points 1 year ago

Dutch profanity is fitting as much illnesses in a sentence as possible, with a few racistic remarks.

Lmao yes Hindi curses just sound much more aggressive than fucks or assholes

I'm natively bilingual. It depends what language I'm speaking and if I want someone to understand or not.

Pretty much depends on who I'm cursing at lol

Always curse at the person in the opposite language they speak. If they know both, sign language

[–] squaresinger@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Over here many people are native in sign language cursing. There's the word with the middle finger, the one with the index finger against the temple, the raised fist, the flat hand moving from throat to chin, the index finger across the chin and so on.
