    Nom de dieu de putain de bordel de merde de saloperie de connard d’enculé de ta mère

    God damn fucking fucking shit fucking motherfucker asshole

    I have to say I expected something more elequent given the number of unique words in the original but I guess that’s French for you. They got like eight words for fuck?

      That translation is quite inaccurate. Not saying I can really do a better job but for example there’s nothing in there translating to “asshole”, that would be “trou du cul” or “trouduc” for short.

      It’s really quite impossible to translate especially due to the way we string them together which doesn’t make any sense in English, we kinda just put them after each other and it works in french. Also the words have almost completely lost their original meaning, they’re just the insults now.

      Nom de dieu: in the name of god/god damn

      Putain: whore (used like fuck/fucking)

      Bordel de merde: “mess of shit” a bloody mess that is full of shit, or something

      Saloperie: from “salope” (also kind of “whore” but they don’t get paid for it).

      Connard: dickhead/asshole

      Enculé de ta mère: this comes as one piece, enculé means you get fucked in the ass then we add “of your mother” just because we can.

          And then the magic of the French Language created this special word from it that both means a situation which is all slutty behaviour and a place which full of sluts AT THE SAME TIME, and actually make it sound good.

          It’s pretty hard to beat the French when it comes to curses around sex.
