Spanish Word of the Day: cagar (2)

by Ramses on March 10, 2009 · 6 comments

Yesterday I talked about cagar. Today; part two.

Like I said yesterday, it’s a pretty funny word. However, a Spanish friend of mine came up with another nice expression with the word cagar. Look out: it’s pretty harsh:

Me cago en…

After that you can put pretty much every person. For example: Me cago en tu puta madre – “Damn your f*cking mother”. The English translation doesn’t really cover the meaning, but to me it’s really logical (in Dutch we have the same expression; ik heb schijt aan je moeder). Literally it means: “I poop on your mom”.

Sentences

¡Me cago en en la mar!
Shit!/damn!

Hahaha, that has got to be the funniest thing I have seen in my reading of Spanish so far. I’m probably more likely to remember it because of that. I know that they are vulgar but I really enjoy learning the palabrotas. :)

Well it’s even more funny when you realize how many ways you can use it… as ramses says, almost any person can follow “me cago en …”

there’s a funny and long one: “Me cago en to’ lo que se menea y en los peces de colores”

Spaniards say “Me cago en la leche” a LOT. Highly vulgar, yet so very common in everyday conversation.
