In polish, calling people with the neutral gender. It's a grave insult which implies lack of agency and dehumanisation, and thank to some rightwinger assholes in parliament is also a specific transphobic insult now.

While in english it's completely normal thing to say if you're not sure of a person's gender.

So definitely not my "favourite", i would never said this to anyone in polish and i occasionally get a hiccup of misgendering someone in english because of that, but interesting from language point of view.

كول هوا

"Kawl hawa"

Literally "eat air" in Arabic

Means shut up

Greetings from Poland.

"bambaryła" - someone who is very silly. Also: someone who is very fat. A little old-fashioned.

Portuguese is full of these, but how about vai pra casa do caralho.

Which roughly translates to "go to the dick's home", basically another way of saying "go fuck yourself", but even more vulgar somehow.

In Bulgaria we have the very creative insult „You’re as sharp as an edge on a round table”, which I find pretty amusing

German: "Dich soll der Blitz beim Scheißen treffen" - Lightning shall strike you while you're taking a shit

Best insult ever, imo.

In French, "pisse-vinaigre" or vinegar pisser, for someone that complains about everything

My personal favourites from Finnish.

"Ei ole kaikki muumit Muumilaaksossa" "Not having all the Moomins in Moomin Valley" Used for people who are either stupid or lack sanity. There are other variants of this and Moomin one is not older than a couple of decades.

I find our version of Grammar Nazi pretty great. We call them comma fuckers.

"Ei voi kauhalla ottaa jos on lusikalla annettu" "You can't take with a ladle if it was given with a spoon". This refers also to a lack of something, usually a lack of intelligence or sense.

三小 in Taiwanese literally translates as “what sperm?” But it means “what the fuck”.

Argentinian here, I find very funny that a while ago somebody decided to express frustration saying la concha del pato or la concha del mono (lit. "vagina of the male duck" or "monkey"). Yes, the absurdity of a male animal with a female organ seems to reinforce the obscenity somehow.

When a man balds at a young age, we say 'they were still shaving his mom when he was born'

Pretty brutal, eh ?

Du hast doch nicht alle Tassen im Schrank - German, you don't have all your cups in the drawer.

Telling someone he is stupid via comparison to cups. Why? Who knows.

Word: Muji

In Devnagari (Nepali): मुजी

Meaning: A woman's pubic hair

In sentence: तँ मुजीको गाला फुट्नेगरी पड्काउॅछु।

Translation: I'll slap the living crap out of you muji.

Here are a few Austrian ones:

"Häferl" (Cup): someone with anger management issues

"Du rüttelst am Watschenbaum" (You are shaking the slap tree): I'm close to deliver the fruit of said tree to you.

"Ohrwaschlkaktus" (Ear cactus): Someone with large, protruding ears

"Saubauch" (Hog belly): A way of telling someone that they are fat and dumb at the same time. But in a nice way.

The disapproving and insulted look of a Canadian when you've done something so stupid that they can't even apologize for it.

It's when there's no apology or jokes, just the look, that you know you've become the stupidest fucker north of these here prairies and bears ya know.

Very Belgian: He doesn't have all his fries in the same bag / Il n'a pas toutes ses frites dans le même sachet

Meaning that he's/she's dumb or confused :D

My favorite has to be zkundyksicht, it comes from "z kundy ksicht" which literally means "a face [that came] from a cunt". "Z" = from, "kunda" = cunt, "ksicht" = a rude way to say face.

• Γαμώ το σπίτι σου (literally: fuck your house) I guess this basically means to fuck your whole family
• Γαμώ τη Παναγία σου (literally: fuck your Saint Mary)
• Γαμώ το Χριστό σου (literally: fuck your Jesus)
• Να μου κλάσεις τον πούτσο (literally: fart my dick) I guess this means "I'll fuck you from behind"
• Πάρ'τα 3 μου (literally: take my 3) The 3 is implied for balls, and they're 3 instead of 2 because it's more manly I guess lmao
• Κλάσε μου τα 3 (literally: fart my 3) A combination of the previous two
• Αρχίδι (literally: testicle) You can actually call someone a testicle in Greek

Pannekoek.

You figure it out.

In Tamil: சோத்துல உப்பு போட்டு தான தின்ற?

Translation: Don’t you add salt to your food?

Context: This is when somebody doesn’t react/listen/change no matter how much they are insulted. The other party asks if they add salt to their food, or if they only eat bland food, and thus have lost all emotions and have become as bland as their food.

It’s a bit difficult to explain, but the general belief is that food reflects your emotions and reactance and moods. Bland food - emotionless, spicy food - easy to anger, etc.

In the dialect of the Italian province I'm from, my favorite insult is "Perdabàll", which literally means "balls loser" as someone who's so stupid and useless that could even manage to lose his testicles
