And bastard?
2007-03-18 10:06:23 · update #1
I'm guessing you mean "damn" as a curse word and not "damn" as in "condemn"
in that case, the closest word we'd use is probably
"chikusho" kanji - 畜生
and there isn't really a "shut up" rather than a "you're noisy" or "don't say anything" - urusei うるさい、 damare - だまれ！

"Kuso" is literally closer to "sh*t." However, it is used the way we say "damn" in English, so that or "chikushou" works. It's hard to actually translate curses because there aren't exact equivalents.
The first person has "shut up" so I'll leave that one.
"Bastard" is a bit harder. There is a word for "you" that's incredibly rude, "temee." "Kisama" is pretty bad, too. If you call someone this, it's basically the equivalent to saying, "bastard" (or worse). I tend to think of, "bakayarou" as being "bastard," in my head, though it doesn't literally mean that. You could also say "idiot" or "dumbass" or something for that one. There's a great kansaiben word that would be perfect, but I can't remember it right now lol. I'll edit this if I think of it.
