Here is a list of the cusswords that Marco used during our trip in Pavia, and what a list it has turned out to be! More like a guidebook excerpt. Read on …

.

Follows the basic Know-how for real blasphemous people:

The one that made me laugh like a maniac was DIO TASCAPANE (word that doesn´t mean shit, according to my knowledge, but can be translated into “God bread-pocket”….).

Then you go with the famous ones: Dio porco/cane/bastardo/maledetto/schifoso/orribile…

(N.B. the above mentioned are used almost by everyone, they are not only Marco´s; he´s just got the “gift” to be able to put them in the most evil way…)

Naturally Dio can be exchanged with Gesú (Jesus..) any time you want. The most skilled ones create very effective and colorful figures of speech by exchanging the order of the words, using repetitions (like cane Dio, Dio cane) and so on and so on….

People can also refer to Madonna, so that you get things like Madonna puttana/troia/vacca/zozza… An adjective very dear to Marco was POMPOLIONA (or something like that, in fact that´s not even a real word).

That´s all I can come up with, all the rest is fantasy as you can figure from Marco´s weird words.

Excuse Blue and I while we go laugh our asses off now.
