OK. So, I’ve undertaken the rather exciting task of learning the tongue of Molière. I’m having a wonderful time: I actually love the language, there are some nice looking gals in my class and, as a bonus side effect, I’m filling grammar gaps I didn’t even know I had, both in English and in Spanish.
So, everything was going fine and dandy, until I came upon a horrendous realization: I couldn’t curse in French!!! Horrified by such a cataclysmic circumstance, I immediately proceeded to inquire my teacher as to why I still had not been taught a single dirty word. To my consternation, she calmly replied that such a fundamental element of human discourse was not contemplated among the course objectives and, as such, was to be obviated.
As I bordered on the brim of suicide, complete despair having got the best of me, a sudden burst of insight gave a glimmer of hope: The Internet. I googled the list I’m posting below, but somehow that was not fulfilling enough. Yet more dirty colloquialisms were needed to quench my insatiable thirst.
Thusly, I recur to Humanity’s Last Bastion of Wisdom: The SDMB. What I’m hoping for is that francophone dopers (battle-hardened from discussions aplenty and armored with the best lingo the streets of France have to offer) will show up and generously share the essential knowledge that presently eludes this newbie in the “cursing-in-French” department.
So, will you be a nice prick and teach me how to curse?
To start it off, here are the few dirty words/phrases I’ve gotten so far
