Should be noted that Hurensohn in German is a lot harsher than son of a bitch in English

[-] TempleSquare@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Doesn't it literally mean "whore-son" (huren-sohn)?

My German is poor.

[-] koolkiwi@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

It does. But while in English you could easily say something like "you son of a bitch, you did it" to a friend, you wouldn't do the same with Hurensohn in German as this would offend most people.

Depends your circle of friends I'd say

They all say removed where the expletives are for me

Lemmy.ml has a slur filter that bans words like female dog (derogatory) and prostitute (derogatory).

Yeah. Not those literal words of course, but bitch and whore.

[-] UnhingedFridge@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Google notes huren as whore, if that lines up a bit more, with sohn being pretty self-explanatory.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of whoreson from GoT

[-] Norgur@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that's the ballpark of where "Hurensohn" is on the harshness scale. You can't say it admiringly either. So "oh, you son of a bitch, you did it!" isn't possible for "Hurensohn".

[-] Cabrio@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Never met an Aussie that can't say expletives in an endearing way.

[-] Xariphon@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Or Whoreson Jr from The Witcher, who was also a fucking psycho.

[-] Hank@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

It's like cunt in America.

Neuer Kommentarbereich im Osten.

Reddit is an autocracy since they censor criticism

[-] x4740N@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Spez's whole ancestry line excluding common ancestors is a son of a bitch
