Let's face it - the Yanks are cr@p at it (they don't know boll0cks) and nearly all European sportspersons resort to English for a good torrent of abuse. Even the French - all they've got is merde. I think the Aussies are pretty close, but they lose marks for things like "strewth" and "gallah". I've thought about this long and hard - and producing chavs and profanity are the only things we can still claim to be world leaders at.
What I want to make certain of, though, is that there isn't some other language, like Swahili, for example, that's going to turn out to have better a swearing vocabulary.
So if you know of a language that can outdo the likes of tw@t, bugg@r, fcuk, c unt, b0ll0cks and shite, please let me know.
