I'm German, but I have to hand it to them: The Dutch have by far the best insults of any language.
When the Dutch start cussing:
Ich nehme den Saupressmagen in Biersoße mit Kartoffeln und dazu ein Hacker-Pschorr.
Ich hab nur Augustiner!
Augustiner trink ich wenn ich kotzen will.
Kinda unfortunate because if Americans understood the Hitler speeches they'd know he's a whiney bitch who sounds just as stupid as Trump with just as much of a victim complex.
It took me a while to realize that my mom (Korean, from Busan area) was on the phone having a conversation and not a heated argument. Literally sounded like screaming at times.
Korean either sounds whiny or argumentative
East Asian languages in general (excluding Japanese). My first thought seeing this meme was "this MF never heard Cantonese before?"
Basszátok szájba magatok
Imagine a Hungarian peasant in a fancy dress.
Ich bin ein Berliner
Die in hell. points at shoes
English insults are like "How's your day, love?" and the other lad is positively miffed on account of how you pronounced it.
Idk man "May you get fucked by a swordfisch" (spanish insult) is pretty hard in my book x)
What's this in Spanish?
¡Que te folle un pez espada!
TIL https://crossidiomas.com/que-te-folle-un-pez/
This idiom may seem vulgar and offensive at first glance, but it has a deeper meaning that reflects the culture and mentality of the Spanish people.
That's a cool site
UND KEINE EIER!
That guy has the thickest accent, which makes the song even funnier to me
Einmal Pommes mit Ketchup zum mitnehmen bitte, aber ohne Zwiebeln
Ne, ich bin die Currywurst und er Pommes rot-weiß.
*Pommes-Schranke
Wer ist Pommes mit Zwiebeln?
Ich, wie gesagt, nicht, aber manche Leute essen alles mit Zwiebeln. Bis zu einem gewissen Punkt geh ich da mit, aber bei Pommes und Obstsalat nicht
Lass sofort ein Bier rüberwachsen, sonst setzt's Randale!
Der Schaum sieht jämmerlich aus
Russian sounds super soft. Childish, almost.
i dont like russian government but the russian language actually sounds cool for me
I used to drive for a living and all night long I would listen to podcasts and audiobooks. I really enjoy spy, military, and sci-fi. So I've listened to a ton of spy and military books with Russian characters. Eventually I started trying to impersonate different voices and got really good at the Russian and Scottish voices.
My Scot doesn't really fool anyone, but I've got a few people now with the Russian voice. It also helps that the Russian accent most people know if the one American actors use in TV and film. I'm sure anyone who knew what a real Russian accent sounded like would know instantly.
Я тоже так думаю
I can't read Cyrillic.
Ya tozhe tak dumayu
It means 'I think too' and is with the Latin alphabet roughly: Ya tosche tak dumaio
Dumaio - to think? Curious. We have an archaic expression 'dumati' around here. Same meaning.
Полностью с вами согласен
In Poland we have this old joke, where the reveal is that German language is barbed wire.
Don't remember the joke though ;)
ln Hungary, there's a legend, that the word "német" (German) comes from "néma" (mute)
Italian insults are just funny. Everything is about dicks.
See that? You don't. Its not night. You insult in the shadow of an old drunk Mexican.
الله يلعن تاريخك. كس أمك وكس الذي جابتها. الله ياخذك يا إبن الكلب حأدخل حذائي فوق طيزك.
no offense to OP :D I've heard worse insults but that's all i can remember right now lol
Einmal Döner mit alles und scharf bitte
