"K*rwa"-why do young Poles find this word so cool ?

1st day in poland with zero idea about polish language, i asked my wife and her friends a question they found it funny ..
i asked if k*rwa is like a sign ,comma or point because i can hear it after every 2 words when i see 2 guys talking or group of young in streets,bus,..... !!

then later i found it's common word between young ppl .. some old also use it normaly.

Primitive people who have scarce vocabulary and little to say tend to use it often. I also find it repulsive.
On the other hand, it is a good and quick means of recognition when you meet somebody. A few words by him/her and you know you prefer to stay away from the guy.


Well, probably in some pathologically deranged circles. :):):):)

Are we sure that it's Kurwa.

I thought the young used Kurde

Neither of them are pleasant though.

very young use "kurczak", watch this: youtube.com/watch?v=ChxzQ9pWntY

Why do English speakers think the word "cool" is so great?

Probably they got used to it because of the 'cool' climate we experience here LOL......

I expect, we'd say 'Hot' a lot more if the weather was better <grin>

Cool stuff alright :))

:)

I've heard people of all ages and social backgrounds use this word. Some people just use it more rarely, so it makes impression they don't use it at all. This word even occurs in classic Polish poetry:

Julian Tuwim: Bal w Operze (Ball in the Opera)


More or less:
And she is still writhing
And overgrowing with fat
And lashing her tail nonchalantly,
The main attraction of the Ball!
And she's singing: "who wants to get in on?
To get it on?
To get it on?"
The radiating Kurwa Mać*,
Kurwa - have,
Kurwa - take!.

*common expression of anger, literally meaning "mother w.h.o.re"

Jan Kochanowski "Na matematyka" (On a mathematician)


He's measured the earth and the deep sea
He knows how daybreak and twilight comes
He understands the winds, [sorry, i don't get Renaissance Polish that well)
And he cannot see he's got a w.h.o.r.e. at home.
