Title: Zalanthan Swear Words
Post by: Semper on February 23, 2015, 03:15:42 PM
I know there was a thread about this somewhere, but wherever it is, I'm pretty sure it's dated. I was wondering if I could get a list of creative swear words and phrases that you can use in Zalanthas. I get tired of using the same old and need some suggestions.  ;D Key word being "creative" please!

It really depends on what you consider a swear.
Things like "Feck" "Shit" "Shite" "Fuck" "Hell" "Drov" Are all pretty basic.
But if you are really mad and want to be creative be like.
"His light's shining ass hole" Or something, is where the big boy gasps and awe come from, depending on where you are of course.
Though I don't really have a list...the slang page and the page on the website is basically all there is, unless you want to be creative. Or I'm completely wrong.

I also thought HELP CURSES would yield little noses and warts on butts.

I personally really like 'kanksore' which isn't on the list, and 'elf' - oh, and 'cuntsliver', which isn't really Zalanthan but just feels Zalanthan.h

EDIT: In rereading the CURSES helpfile, I read this:
Quote
Tek's Balls - See Utep's Balls.
Tek's whiskers - See Utep's teeth.
as this:

I've only heard it in reference to the actual Arm logo (http://www.armageddon.org/images/armlogo.png), and not anything in game.

I apparently used "sunshits" in game once as a curse, but don't remember the context.

"Sunsluts" might apply to those attractive characters who never take their sunslits off.

I never understood "feck". Seemed like a cop-out to me.

Fuck. Shit. Piss. Damn. Hell. Drov. Kank-fucker. Bitch. Asshole. All legitimate swear words.

Feck (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/feck?s=t) is an accepted variant of fuck in lexicography. Also for people who feel uncomfortable using vulgarities in their daily lives but want to portray their character as foul mouthed feck might be easier for them to use. For both of these reasons I'm happy to see Feck see use in game.

Is it bad I alternate between the two?
If I want to sound fancy.
"Fuck"
If I want to sound gritty.
"Feck arse shite" etc.

If I think about it, I don't know if I ever really use any constructed 'swear' words.

I believe my favorite constructed derogatory word I've heard and used IG is 'chub' which if I had to pin down an origin... I would say it's a derogatory term for humans used by Rinthi elves that a lot of people in the Rinth started using.

'Chub' is a great word.

wide-walker. wide-leg.

Walking with the girth of an ungainly human, taking up space.

All of a sudden this sounds like an anatomy class with an undercurrent of prejudice.
