Hey all! There's been some audio issues (got a copyright slap for using a non copyright song love this) so a small chunk of the video sounds like I am speaking in a fish bowl. I apologize, I aim to have good audio quality in my vids so this is upsettio but at least I didn't have to take the whole thing down

[@yxcar121]

jokam😂

[@SgtRocko]

BWAHAHA I'm married to a Slovenian, and hear these all the time. I now firmly believe that Slovenians just mystify themselves with their curses, so they forget that they're angry - and anyone they're cursing at is so confused, they're not sure if they should be insulted or not. Except “Pes te nima rad” - that's just hurtful LOL AWESOME video, Barbara. Now I can just giggle when the cussing begins...

[@NarnianRailway]

Even in their insults, Slovenians are very kind and clever. 🤩

They must have imported Canadians to write some of these.

These are some of the funniest and most epic eenśoołts I’ve ever seen / heard, gotta learn them fast - I am learning Slovene and many other languages, including Norse / Icelandic / Dutch / Norwegian / Gothic / Faroese / Danish / Welsh / Breton / Cornish etc, and I highly recommend learning them 2gether!

[@Dude_Slick]

Old school German uses the same kinds of things as curse words. My dad used to tell me about when he was a kid in the 40s living on a farm, and his grandpa would take his little flask out to the barn where he would drink and curse at the cows in German. And it would usually translate to something like "Thunder, lightning, and dead carcasses". Or "Heaven's ass has hemorrhoids like a volcano" Sounds like a fun guy.

[@TheBarbaraHorvat]

Nooooooo, not the hemorrhoids omg :D

[@user-fj9ik4yj1y]

In brotherhood country of Slovakia (because Slovenija vs Slovensko "Slovaška" )we have some very similar and quite common used expressions: 300 hrmených = "300 thunders" - very common used like 300 hudičev Doparoma! = means "To Perún or Parom" (slavic god of thunder), same sa Gromska strela Nech ťa šľak trafí = exactly same as Naj te strela udari Čert ťa ber = exactly same as Hudič te vzemi Ani za deravý groš = means "neither for leaky penny", same as Nisi vreden počenega groša I was in Slovenia on holiday last month, very nice country and very kind people :)
