Multilingual Swear List

04.23.2007

Back when Google released their code search, the first thing users did was search for the profanities of frustrated coders. Common queries included the common curses like “fuck” and “shit.”

I, however, was searching for more creativity and comprehensiveness. I searched for the most vulgar phrase in an attempt to find a list of banned words. I succeeded in my quest and found the Multilingual Swear List, a complete list of about any vaguely profane word in more than 100+ languages.

multilingualSwearList.txt, the file is called, can conveniently be used as foreign-language swearing dictionary. Did you know that ‘kwanii’ is Arabic for ‘faggot’?

What’s the vulgar phrase I searched for to find this repository of bad words? cuntface.
