Finnish swears are pretty fun but my favorite is perkele
Perkele is the best but the one I use most often is vittu.
And when you really need to drive the point home, the holy trinity is of course vittu saatana perkele
As the other commenter said, vittu is the most common one but I really also like jumalauta, which is like “my fucking god”
Also some more interesting common phrase is “voi vittujen kevät ja kyrpien takatalvi”, literally translates to “spring of cunts and blackberry winter of dicks”
Also some more interesting common phrase is “voi vittujen kevät ja kyrpien takatalvi”, literally translates to “spring of cunts and blackberry winter of dicks”
As a Canadian, this is the phrase I was looking for when I saw snow sticking on the ground after a nice warm period in the last couple of days. It’s perfect and I love it.
so what’s the cultural significance of a “blackberry winter”? does that mean like it’s abundant with something?
Cultural significance is probably just the fact that Finland is north and cold, it’s often joked that the summer is short and with little snow. I can’t really explain it, but the word “takatalvi” feels extremely Finnish in every way, the meaning, the fact that there’s a dedicated single word for the phenomenon, and also just the feeling of that word in your mouth
I see. Thank you for explaining
Ever since i played “my summer car”, this is my go to
A classic, the French merde.
Kurva/kurwa always sounds fun to say to me
Kurwa
су́ка блять
I’m a fan of pendejo. If you’ve never heard someone say it you’re missing out. It’s always said with such utter contempt and the “de” is emphasized so hard it’s practically spit out.
Runner up: puta madre
Behenchod (sister fucker), madarchod (mother fucker), chutiya (roughly translates to stupid/dumb).
Bhosdike
Klootviool (bullock violin)
Teringlijer ( sufferer of typhoid)
Zakkenwasser (scrotum cleaner)
Klootviool is kinda similar to Arschgeige. I don’t know what it is with violins and private parts.
Or the Americans and their tiny violin.
Tabernac!
Well, I’ve found my new ringtone.
Chinga - I think it means fuck in Spanish Mexican.
Also, the “shave and a haircut” knock means “chinga tu madre cabron” in Mexico, and should be avoided. (You just sang it. Everyone does.)
I’ve often wondered how they localized Who Framed Roger Rabbit for Mexico.
Chinga la migra
Hell yeah chinga la migra!
Chinga is my favorite because it’s so versatile
Shazbot!
Huh. Today I learned that it’s not just English slang. It’s from the language of the planet Ork.
Where are you referencing that from? From the internet era its used in the Tribes franchises quick-chat, but its also from Rockey and Bullwinkle (1950/60s). Any uses older than that are a mystery to me.
Hodenkobold (Testicle Goblin)

Which language, please?
German
Gott im Himmel!
Danke schon
German, I think!
Ach!
Danke schon!
Perkele! I like the profanity where you invoke the name of a volcano diety
name of a volcano diety
*thunder/lightning god
Yes, one of the old gods. A bit like grandfather of Satan.
oh, my mistake. now i’m curious who I was thinking of
Not sure :) Not many volcanoes in Finland lol
bruh I think it was Pele 🤦♂️I should have been held back a couple years in school
I had no idea that Pele was a volcano god, as well as a footballer. Pretty amazing.
I think I was confused because they sound vaguely similar 😑 like if you really walk to make the connection
Cazzo is the one that feels the most fun for me after Fuck.
Vaffancoulo is a good one too
I’m Spanish. I’m partial to “puta madre”.
Como la puta madre - like a motherfucker
Está de puta madre - fucking amazing
Hijo de tu puta madre - son of a fucking bitch
