Thread 216523880

Have you found any words in other languages that you like? I like "Assi" in German, from "Asozialer". Think someone a bit trashy, blasts music at 3 AM, parks in handicap spots, dumps their sofa in the forest next to the recycling center, regularly gets into loud fights with their "friends" for all neighbors to hear, has lived off welfare, owns a pit bull, probably somewhat criminal, etc.

Not even sure if those are the exact implications in German, but feel like there isn't a good word for those people. "Asshole" and the like is too broad.

It's Asi, with a [z].
Assi with [s] is short for Assistent.
To be fair, more native speakers don't make that distinction either

Lack of yebats. I learned hui because I used to work with an Uzbek guy, and apparently it sounds like seven in Swedish (sju).

I sometimes say 'Tabernak' .
I don't know why this became a habit, I have never been to Canada nor have I ever learnt French

Sounds like a Captain Haddock insult

Yeah, would probably suck to have them as in-laws

>>216523941
don't think he'll get it, since Scandi langs lack [z]

>>216525091
I've learned it though. S but you're a bee.

nice
if you want to apply a broader view, [z] is just voiced counterpart to [s], which is voiceless, just like [ɡ] is to [k], [d] is [t], [b] is to [p], etc
you articulate them the same, but voiced consonants make use of the vocal cords, while voiceless ones don't
