What if you were in a very strongly religious country, and you heard someone over here had sworn, using a very common swear word meaning you want someone to be damned by their creator. Are you going to start preaching that the American who said that meant what he said, and should be severly punished for such a thing? Are you really ready to judge someone's severity of swearing-without even knowing the language, or what goes as the norm? | Lee,
I come from the same part of the world Darko comes from, and my language is close enough to get a pretty good understanding of what he did say. And I'll say this - it is unacceptable in Serbia just like it is unacceptable here in US. |
