#English #React #Japan
but americans usually don’t swear AT someone, more often they are just filler words or screwing around with someone
Huh? Up yours pal.
Yup, and no racist intended, but when black people say swears, I'm actually feel enlightened like entertained rather than feel insulted, idk why tho, maybe I feel if they use those it feels closer to them ?
Uyoku Dantai who said anything about liberals?
Polyglot Gamer tf?
@@miya1285 "no racism intended" is a clear sign. All liberals do is think about race, so it's easy to tell.
Imagine doing this interview in a tourist heavy area with english speaking foreigners walking past. I think you'd get a few "wtf" looks lol.
burst out laughing 3:48 thinking exactly that
I'd probably join in and make a list of swears they need to include.
Probably lmaooo
kl wies Yeah, we are way too casual about it.
But if you think we are casual about it, wait until you meet the Irish.
strange name you got... and you joind you tube at 19.10.2009. Why did you not warn us??
*someone bumps into me on the street*
Me: *G O H A V E S E X W I T H G O D*
Right in the us hole
WITH ME MAYBE!
Oh I just watched that part 😂😂😂
LOL

“The English ones are all sex jokes.”
I mean, they’re not wrong. I haven’t met a single American who doesn’t, in some capacity, default to sex jokes when they’re desperate for a joke.
Princess Rosalina where Im from we don’t do that unless they are hella desperate for a laugh
Either that or we just insult each other
I lean more towards the dark and offensive humor
They haven't refined the ancient art of the dead baby joke? That's ironic, given all the school shootings.
Nick Allen yes that’s the best humor it had that shock value 😂
@@CaptainDoomsday some have
06:38 "They can almost have a conversation just with swear words."
You're right about that lmao
D sometimes teens make a challenge to try not to curse for a whole day. 🙄
That’s so true. Being a Canadian even tho our image is “polite” lots of people will casually use swear words every second word in their conversations.
@@Saratonin__ I see a lot of Canadians here in the states, mostly as tourists and snowbirds, and ya'll don't swear nearly as often as the average American, at least in polite conversation. Especially among friends. One of my friends is Canadian, and he always gets disturbed when we casually drop f-bombs, n-bombs, and c-bombs.
The worst offenders are the Aussies, though. They swear enough to offend an American.
Maxatrillion idk about your friend but almost every person I know swears just as much as Americans do.
Literally those songs I listen to are made up of all swear words. Can't get enough cussed word, they even try to come up with more to fit in the song!
"People have different hobbies" That is...QUITE the take.
I love her!!!
Yeah she's legit lol
thats the right 'hol up' moment right there..
yes, i bet she loves the young white stud ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
She's right though, people do that here in the USA as well. Often young men are sought after by older women aka cougars and these women are often mothers.
4:10 lol this woman is my favorite. "Okay I'm going"
"Japanese curses are more indirect"
....is it indirect to tell someone to die!?!?! I feel like japanese curses are way meaner 😂
Well they don't tell you how to die. If they were direct, they'd say go take a knife and stab yourself in the stomach. But that must not roll off the tongue easily in Japanese.
Thank you I said the same thing while watching this!
Yes, I agree. Americans say compare you to something humiliating where Japanese people will extinguish you from the Earth. It's severe, I can see why they wouldn't curse that much.
Dayvit78 Yes, it does. It’s called seppuku
@@princesidon and harakiri. the fact that they have two specific words for that action shows how direct they are lol
2:31 "ah, it means human toilet?"
What kinda stuff is he into, lol.
Haha that was great, "No no, you went too far!!"
Shyheim Williams he thought ass was "us". Meaning: our hole = human toilet
lol, he's a Japanese R. Kelly
It was actually a porn genre in Japan. XD

"People have different hobbies."
Most Japanese response possible.
She's into it

So awesome

""Ass" means earth."
There's actually an explanation to this. "Ass" is basically how you WOULD pronounce Earth with a japanese accent: "Ea" sound gets condensed to "a", "r" becomes silent, and japanese doesn't have the "th" sound so they replace it with an "s" sound (so a japanese saying "Thank you" sounds like they're saying "Sank you")
@@KooriGraywolf Recently there was a fashion among corporate Japan to prefix everything with the worth "Earth" to make it sound Eco. A particularly unfortunate one was a trade show called Earth Hall to display eco credentialed products. Ass Hall. Ass hole.
@@KooriGraywolf Yup. That's also the reason why Aerith (named after Earth) was called Aeris in the English translation of the original Final Fantasy VII.
@@RazorEdge2006 Yep! That I knew as well.
In Greece if someone is really angry and mad to someone, the swearing will start today and maybe it will finish tomorrow :) And all that using different words.
Gamise ta..
Χάχαχαχα σωστός
И све тој узосте од нас.
in greece we are the only nation that we swear the god we believe
Same all over the Europe. :)
"People have different hobbies." The most epic response in the history of the world.
😂😂 that was the most epic
Western tolerance has nothing on Japanese tolerance!
...different strokes for different folks...
“Can Japanese people swear?” Not really, considering their language not really having swear words. But they definitely know how to insult someone and be verbally abusive, especially toward their subordinates at work.
Interesting. Yeah the japanese social hierarchy has it's downsides.
What would they say in English?
They seem to mostly have passive aggressive sarcasm, provocative words/phrases, and intimidation tactics. They insult w/o the strange phenomena of having a handy list of socially banned words to use creatively.
Cussing is really about the negative power given to a word, it being deemed socially unacceptable, and the disrespect felt or intended in using the word anyway.
For instance, the "n word" isnt a cuss word especially for black folks but in the mouths of nonblack folks its the king of cuss words so powerful it can get you fired, blacklisted/banned, and even killed.
The offense clearly isnt the word then but the social rules around the word as surely as non-black folk who love black folk and only used the word positively still get in trouble for using the word simply because of the social rules and the fake outrage that comes with the power given to that word.
It makes insults in anime make a lot more sense.
@@selfactualizer2099 yeah, knowing the japanese culture makes anime characters not that fictionals (at least in their behavior)
LMAO "human toilet??"
"You went too far."
What is human toilet tho?
@@Hiyorin871 Don't search it up.
"How common is swearing in your country?"
Me -an Australian- trying to reply without swearing: ...
"Pretty fuckin' common"
Every bloody time
It’s basically our culture
America here we are the country thts swears the most like dam
@@franflanigan9041 ever heard of scotland?
That one lady who's like "I'm fine with that" had me wheezing 😂
I miss seeing light-hearted videos like this. I love the serious stuff too, but it's nice when you guys upload fun videos with no politics once in a while. Good job asian boss!
What The Japanese Think Of Japanese Porn ... 5.06M views
This video is boring. Their journalism is based on JPorn. To get more views,Asian Bossy should make more JPorn video as an amature JPorn maker.
ᄂᄋᄉᄐ right
Yes!
Agree! I love how they mix serious & light topic like this too
I agree... I stopped watching the channel for a while because it became too political. While that is important it is great to see lighthearted fun topics too!
I had a friend in high school who was an exchange student from Tokyo, and when she first got there she was shocked by how much we cursed. By the end of her time in the states she was as foul mouthed as any of us while speaking casual English- she really got the hang of it
**Towards the end of the video*
"How often is swearing in your country?"
**Me thinking about it*
"Shiiiiid... pretty often" 😂🇺🇲
Bruhhh lmaoooo
bruv I'm from finland and the amount of swear words and "curses" in Finnish is so big that we can learn new kinds of swearing almost everyday
lol same here *_laughs in putangina_*
Justin Pearson like every 5 min of the day
..... Yes im from England 😂
One thing I think they missed in the explanation is swear words can be used just for emphasis in English. That's how we get to 80 or 90 per day. We're not that angry, we just use them to mean "very" or "a lot" to boost the intensity of whatever we're saying. Used that way, without any anger behind it, the same words can be used very casually, but only with friends.
^This^
"I've heard of people who do that as a hobby" hahahaha 03:40
i didn't get it, what did she meant by that??
she's a legend isn't she? 😂
+fati summer, that some people have sex with their mothers in their free time.
This response left the reporter surprised and partially embarrassed, I think. Notice that at first she even thought the woman was joking, but she meant it.
Fun girl to interview!
Haha. I think she has a good sense of humor. :D
“Americans cuss 80 to 90 times per day”
No way, I know people that easily triple that number lmao
Do you ever feel guilty after cursing?
Nope, never....
😂😂
xxDeath Corexx you’re suppose to feel guilty after?
@@andyd6431 well technically the Japanese do
As someone from Britain, I apologise in advance to any Japanese person who has not witnessed our profanity.
OI LOOKIT DIS IDIOT WANKY SMELIN LAK A FUCKIN LOO
Mir The Destroyer
😂 sounds funny to me
I heard some British people curse and man, they take it to Olympic levels 🤣. I especially like "bawbag" 🤤🤣
C U next Tuesday!!! 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Also from Britain, swearing is part of our daily vocabulary 😅
"Bloody hell what a twat"
Swedish: swear words are used like in english, to either insult or add emphasis to what you say/write. making jokes better, complaints more serious etc.
sug min kuk! LOLL jk mane had to say it xD a filipino girl living in sweden taught me it
joshua lee
That's practically English sounding
Same in danish. "Du er så fuld af lort, Kylling." "Skrid af, fordømte Ælling."
But traditional - swearing has been taboo - and strangely been heavily based on religious words and context. I would guess that swearing became more acceptable in Sweden during the end of the 80ths. And the sexual based curse-words seems to be more prominent during this time.
So curses like "helvetes djävla skithög" and "Din förbannade djävla satans odugling" seems to be more traditional then things like "Sug kuk och dö".
"When was the last time you cussed?"
Me: "not even 30 minutes ago."
Imagine being a foreigner in Japan and witness one of these interviews. I would laugh all the time xD
Happens all the time actually. I was stationed in Japan and as soon as you get off the plane or occasionally when walking through downtown Tokyo random Japanese people will come up to you throw their old cameras in your face and start asking you questions. I typically just wave them off though.
Imagine passing by these two 3:48 casually saying gfy to each other and repeating it to themselves and thinking about it hard 🤣🤣🤣
6:27 I love how her "swear" was just 'Hey, Geezer'
It's pretty likely that there's just no English equivalent that accurately conveys the same meaning and attitude. So "geezer" was the closest they could get to translating it.
Yeah that makes sense unless she was talking to some Del Boy like Cockney Geezers, like a Wide Boy type bloke.
Nah, it's more referring to an elderly person, especially someone you don't know as geezer is extremely rude, so that plus tone... Yeah it's an insult for them...
Love her friends reaction though 😂😂😂
+Jase Vasid Your sentence was very Australian. I'm sorry. What's a Cockney Geezer and Wide Boy bloke?
Given the hierarchal nature of Japanese society and especially how people older than us are supposed to be given respect, she’s a bit more insulting than we would probably think.
Like for us (in American) its an insult. For Japanese I think it’s more like a social faux-pas or kind of more taboo thing to do since you’re disregarding social norms, and disrespecting someone who’s supposed to naturally be respected, to be insulting.
I think in the US, it depends on who you're speaking with. For example, if I'm talking with close friends, I may feel more inclined to swear on occasion. But if I'm speaking out in public, speaking with someone older, or with extended family, I will put on my best manners. It's interesting, too, to see how it varies regionally and by population. I went to college a few years in an urban environment, and when I transferred out to a university in the suburbs, my language shocked my peers, despite being in an art program. My Dad has also mentioned that in a professional environment in certain cities (NYC and LA come to mind), swearing is common. And we're talking high level corporate office. So all of this to say that I think there are a lot of factors that go into when and where swearing is considered appropriate in the US.
yeah if i'm around friends i curse much more and more casually, if i'm around my parents or little kids i won't or i'll use the "kid friendly" versions,haha. And if i'm around older people i try not to say any either.
Same. 👍🏽 good point!
Yeah, I curse a lot in casual conversation
So it goes on to say that the Americans aren’t necessarily ruder than the Japanese in terms to daily conversation
Yeah I think we use swear words like that because we don't have keigo in English. So swear words kind of act like a linguistic registre.
"How often is swearing in your country?"
"kurwa" is my answer
Hahaha ikr
teach them kurwa mac!
Yaaa pierdoł!
When that gal said "Tsk", I felt that.
"us hole", this is just wonderful
_Mother Russia has joined the server_

I once gifted a book about English searing to a Japanese friend. He liked it, But his wife was shocked by the content and asked him _who's this friend of yours that gives you bad books_ lol.
Are you Abroad in a Japan?

Oh yeh 10 out of 10 what sort of retard would cheat on her
here in the west its either: she poison you, stab u in yo sleep, scandal you, send a hit team after you or take half you life earnings.
japan: aww man dont mess around.

I do swear even I am not angry though.

Swearing is 1/3rd of the English language
Meanwhile Spanish is half
You are an us hole
R u half?
The lady with the handbag is such a WIN. 😂😂😂 Lol
3:48 - Imagine just passing by and going, "oh, I wonder what the interview is about" and then just hearing that couple of seconds interaction as you walk on. :)
In Spanish, are many ways to insult someone that can be an Art itself.
Thats so true!! I would pay to see a Spanish and a Mexican insult themselves 😂😂😂 That would be one of the most incredible things!!
Puta madre!
Trueee lol
You mean "Pinche puto carbon"? Likely
Penche chino
I find that for Native English Speakers, we just know when not to use swear words.
If we're around friends or people we're comfortable with, then we're more likely to use swear words. But at school, at work (depending), or with superiors, or people we've just met, we're less likely to use swear words because it's not polite.
Also, every swear word used has a different connotation depending on situation and who we use it to
I don't swear at all. When I do it's because I'm harboring anger and bitterness. It means I gotta deal with my issue before it festers
@@TazHall Nice. Good on you mate.
I just use swear words around my close pals
@Andy Loosi I wish I could agree with you 100%. Unfortunately, depending on where you live or work some people dont acknowledge a "time and place" and feel comfortable saying whatever, whenever. 😕

“I think if we speak up, there will just be endless arguments” Welcome to the US of A.
Very interesting. I appreciate how open and honest the people answered in the interview.
This is the quality content ive been searching for
They. Are. So. Pure.
Someone literally swore as an example and then apologised... 😂🖒
they're NOT pure, many morals in continental asia are nothing in their standard, they just know how to express feelings to be considerate
more like politically (or culturally?) correct. deep down theyre same as any other people
Ew. Culturally different not pure.
Japan is the Germany of asia far from pure my friend.
dude its a completely different culture, in australia we call our friends cunts casually and its fine but if you said the same thing in cantonese (because i speak cantonese and live in australia) you would probably never see your friends again
80 to 90 times a day? Who came up with that pole? It seems I'm waayyyyyyy behind in my swearing..
Kurwa. For polish guy is 1000 times a day. Kurwa. Waaaay behind. Kurwa.
For Australians it's like at least 500 times a day
British People say like 10000 a day
Goddamn right you are. LOL!!
Don't worry about it. I'll adjust the average.
I really appreciate these types of on the street interviews, getting an insight on people from other countries & cultures has always been fascinating to me.
I was really intrigued on this topic. Thanks for making this video.
It's so common to swear in France that when I'm in Japan I'm sometimes really frustrated! Especially when I used to work there ahah
So happy no one could understand my "putain" and "bordel de merde" x)
In America we use swear words with every other word they don't always mean badd things but most of the time they can aint express a desire an opinion a thought and they can also be used as a noun depending on the word being used. Many swear words have different meanings depending on context but as an adult in America we use them constantly however it is frowned upon for a child to use them most children around 16 years old start swearing
That age limit has changed though over the years... I have heard even 5-8 year olds using bad languages. Much of society almost has no shame any more it seems.
16yrs?? East Europe is like 12 lol
Lol 16 😭😭😭 nah man it’s more like 8
16 is too old for kids in the west to start swearing. They've been swearing since much younger.
Kids swear among kids much earlier than that, most just know better than to use the words around adults.
「外国外国」と言われて続けてるけどアメリカだけの話をでしょw
excellent! very insightful.
i would have to disagree with what the person said at 7:25 ish about not being able to be as expressive in english, and how we use less words than japanese. lots of english is reliant on stringing certain words together to mean something, whereas in japan they have words that mean specific things. for example, 一昨日 (ototoi) which means the day before yesterday. in english we obviously don't have a word for the day before yesterday, instead we just use other words that we already have to make meaning.
There actually is a single word in English that means the day before yesterday, although it's a archaic. The word is ereyesterday. Ere means before. Likewise, there is a single word that means the day after tomorrow, though it is also archaic. That word is overmorrow.
@@christiandegges1663 well you learn something new everyday. there obviously still more examples of this though. was just the first thing that popped into my head. thanks for the knowledge though :)
@@christiandegges1663 Cool, it just learned the word archaic earlier today, and it is already paying off.
When she said that I thought the opposite. We may technically use fewer words but there is a world of nuance there that as far as I understand it is somewhat lacking in Japanese because it's so strict.
@@christiandegges1663 but are those not just prefixes added to words? like Ere and over since ere mean before i think, they are just strung together to make a new meaning like moon and light to say moonlight its not already a new word its just preexisting words we string together or prefix or suffex, i dont know too mucha bout japaneses words so i cant say if they do this or not.
Italian here. I honestly don't think that any other language has more swearings than Italian. I can't imagine speaking with a friend without swearing at least once for every sentence
show me how
Tiến Lê ?
Alessandro Pedretti I bet Russian has;) and my friend taught me a couple of Italian words: puta and waffanculo)))
Probably spanish people swear even more... my favourite one is: ¡me cago en dios y en la virgen puta! Jajajaja maybe because it reminds me of my dad
Vanessa Ives Puta is Spanish, we say puttana. And those are kinda lite
please please please do a part two of this. we have so many swear words its almost an art form
Thank you, and your people on the streets, for another insight into the wonderful world of Japan.
4:08 "Have sex with God?" Potential plot of an anime right there.

Kamisama Kiss! such a great anime!

Pretty sure it already exists lol
I mean if you add an a between with and god then “is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon” is a good example.
80-90 per day isn't that much of a shock. When it's so casual and second nature like say scratching an itch on your face, that number really adds up. People just don't keep count.
When swear words lose their shock value that's when people tend use them without thought. This is common in the military services. In fact if you are in the military and don't use swear words you stand apart from the average person who does.
That’s only about 5 times per hour if you sleep 8 hours
Ha, ha!So swearing in your sleep doesn't count? Really 80-90 times a day? I don't think that's average.
@@raggmopp857 80-90 on average sounds very reasonable. You have to keep in mind that "average" and "median" are 2 different things.
If there are 2 people and one of them never swears and the other swears 500 times a day, then they both swear 250 times a day on average.
@Robert Siegfried There are people who do a fuckton of swearing. They are probably big contributers to this high average.
There's something surreal about having a swear word that means "go die". Like actually violent, as opposed to biological or sexual.
In German swearing we usually even give the other a step by step guide on how they should kill themselves right there and now with the stuff that is available in the direct vercinity.
@@boahkeinbockmehr Well, at least you're polite and helpful about it.
This was honestly much more insightful and interesting than I expected. I initially thought this would just be clickbait, but hearing people's explanations for the difference was pretty illuminating.
So basically, non-Japanese people use swear words very casually and often don't actually mean it but the severity of words is strong, and Japanese people are strict about them, often actually mean it but the severity of words is quite low...
"I will beat you to death", I'm not sure if I would count that as low severity if they mean it literally...
I think it's the opposite. I've heard angry Japanese people first hand.
Japanese people are lovely and polite untill they get pissed off. Then it's like they've turned into a raging fireball. Some of the scariest language I've heard.
The stuff they say is pretty severe, and the fact that they mean it more than English speakers usually do, makes it worse.
For the record, I love Japan.
I don't know, drunk elderly men will tell you to "go die", and one of the women being interviewed said she told her ex who cheated on her to "go kill yourself" (even tho I'd be pissed too). That's pretty severe from both an American and Japanese perspective, where suicide is a pretty big deal and telling someone to go die/kill themselves is taken super seriously.
@@Hedgehog1039 I could agree with you on that.
In Germany we swear all time and very casually. Lot of our swearwords have to to with feces or genitals.
English lends itself to the German language
German has a lot of swears when dirty talking too. I find that really surprising.
@@s0ltinsert782 but why? we have a universal language system and can create words that fit to ANY situation
If a word is used often and casually, how is it considered swearing? It a word is used casually and often, it loses its offensiveness and at some point ceases to become swearing
When I watched a German dub of a children's cartoon, I burst out laughing when the most innocent character said a sentence that included the word "angepisst"
How common is swearing in your country?
The guy that lives in Russia: Да
"Does it mean someone that's gay?"

@IngLouisSchreurs Language and Culture heavily influence one another. It's often hard to even talk about a language without talking about the culture that made and evolved this language.
Nikolay Manev
The Americans didn't invent English.
@@doryfishie2 But my point is that the language of a nation is part of its culture. When you learn a language from a completely different culture some words/phrases/grammatical rules don't even make sense if you don't first get the cultural context they are used in. And even that American and British cultures are not the same, they are quite similar and part of that is that these 2 nations share the same language. On the contrary, the Japanese culture is completely different and so is its language.
If you want to watch more about comparisom between Japanese and American culture, you should see Jun & Rachel's channel. They do cats videos, cooking videos, japan vlogs, etc.

OMG I was dying laughing over some of the reactions! Great job!
Many English swear words are used in all sorts of contexts/'hardened' or 'softened' by the words around them/context ... so it's not as bad as it sounds, when you say Americans swear 80 times a day (or whatever it was) ... Lol. Anyway, that can't be right ... or there must be some outlier teenagers, dragging the average way up ... XD
They might be counting “hell” and “damn” as swear words lol
80-90x per day seems very excessive. I wonder where they were polling.
Beyond that, I'd be curious to see/hear what words/phrases make up those 80-90x per day.
Supercrapafuckarifickexpiallibullshit.
The Tourettes Guy
My best guess is they polled US army soldiers or marines stationed in Okinawa. We service members swear like it's our first language.
I've met some people who may swear 80-90 times a day, but most do not. Telling viewers Americans swear that often is definitely an over-generalization.
The girl at 3:39 and 4:20 is hilarious. Also the girls at 5:12 are so cute! It was all very enlightening, I had no idea we were so incredibly foul-mouthed compared to other cultures.

2:41 “Our Hole”
*Soviet Anthem Plays*
There is no other way to describe English swearing other than the best in the world. There are so many levels to the way we cuss it’s almost incredible. Most of our swear words can be nouns, adjectives, pronouns, puns etc. there is a literal art to cussing someone out in English. And if we are cussing you out you’ll know it no matter if you know English or not. We get pissed off 😂😂
The guy at 0:34 reminds me of my dad. My co-worker was surprised when I said that I don't like swearing. This video explains it perfectly. It's a cultural thing.
Just think about how many words in English use the word "Ass". Smartass, Hardass, Kickass, Dumbass, ect. Its such a majestic Language
Ass is an American thing in Britain and later colonies swearing is very sex focused
There's a Finnish comedian named Ismo that has a great bit about the many uses of "ass." You should try to find it, I think you'd like it 😂
badass
Smart donkey, hard donkey, kick donkey, dumb donkey, donkey hole.
Can't (and won't) speak for anyone else, but there are only three times where I use profanity...and mean it.
1. Pain - for example, if I'm out running and somehow injure myself, rest assured that I'm probably going to let the swear words fly.
2. Fear - the example that comes to mind is...when flying somewhere and we encounter turbulence that just doesn't feel it's ever going to end (yes, I have a bit of a fear of flying...though, really, it's more a fear of crashing.)
3. Anger - the curious thing is that I mostly unleash profanity at myself when I'm angry. If I'm angry with you, it's going to be one of two phrases: "Seriously?" or "C'mon, man."
Though, realistically, I try not to use profanity all that much. I read somewhere that it's more interesting to use non-profanity to express one's self. Very rarely will anyone hear me swear. It's not that I can't/won't...it's just that I don't.
I'm on the same page as you. I don't ever use profanity, even with pain, fear, anger. There's no need for it, it isn't interesting, it's not unique. Use your brain and come up with a new way to express yourself that's more interesting to listen to.
Here in the Philippines swearing is pretty much common and it can measure how close you are with someone. We swear when we greet someone (usually with close friends), when we're excited or scared, when we get to see our crush, when we see our friends acting stupid or with simple things like accidentally losing a grip on something. We can say it with almost everything, it's more like an expression, a normal thing and not rude. Sometimes we use such words to ease the tension of a conversation. Well it depends on to whom and how you say it though. In my work we honestly use "fck" every single freakin day when we're frustrated almost everyone in my coworker does then we laugh it off afterwards
This was an amazing video. Great insight into Japanese speaking culture 👏 👌
3:54 "This one is difficult."
Technically, he's right.
They're so polite that they don't know how to be mean lol
Where I am from, Durango, Mexico, EVERYBODY swears ESPECIALLY children no joke.
that's adorable, you haven't been to Russia yet.
@@kubiklive2089 let me guess, children also curse?
Why does their language sound so cute sometimes it just feels like they are reciting a poem.
I m feeling like professor in front of them
Coz we indians are madarchoduu ssss😂😂
I feel ya
I feel like a child again when I hear adults calmly discussing/guessing cusswords, like "wow, can they say that?" 😂
awesome vid 👍👏
“How common is swearing in your country?"
*sweats in Singlish*
Now I really want to see how Japanese would react to Balkan swear words 😳
Same...😳
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Especially in Greece!
Another masterpiece by Miss Hiroko 😁
Very informative. More youtube's like this.
I lost it at “Have sex with God?” 🤣
It actually depends. I don't swear if my parents or other elders are near me since I respect them. Me and my friends cure to each other almost quite a lot but always in a joke way. We just always accept curse from our friends in joke way rather than taking it seriously.
When she pronuces these words. I just can't 😂😭💀
I smiled for the entire duration of this video / what a genius idea for a video
Interesting, great points on stress and how it builds up. I think sometimes swearing is just easier than to say something as harsh as "go kill yourself" or "die". Swearing is something someone may not take literally, but telling someone like "die" could actually go make them do that along with taking others with them....its a double edged sword.
