All possible swear words. Cool swear phrases and expressions


Hello comrades. You know, I noticed a long time ago, if you use it correctly curse words- speech is transformed. It becomes elegant and interesting. And most importantly - what powerful emotions can be conveyed with just one Russian swear word. A unique thing - Russian swearing.

But, unfortunately, most people do not know how to use it. Sculpts it through every word. What do I suggest? I suggest you get acquainted with the works of many classics who used ridiculous verbs in their works.

You have heard and read many of them. Personally, I enjoyed re-reading it and rediscovering something for myself.

Perhaps I’m not the only one who will be interested.

Yesenin S. A. - “Don’t strain, dear, and don’t gasp”

Yesenin S. A. “Sing, sing. On the damn guitar"
Sing, sing. On the damn guitar
Your fingers dance in a semicircle.

My last, only friend.

Don't look at her wrists
And silk flowing from her shoulders.
I was looking for happiness in this woman,
And I accidentally found death.

I didn't know that love is an infection
I didn't know that love was a plague.
Came up with a narrowed eye
The bully was driven crazy.

Sing, my friend. Remind me again
Our former violent early.
Let her kiss each other,
Young, beautiful trash.

Oh, wait. I don't scold her.
Oh, wait. I don't curse her.
Let me play about myself
Under this bass string.

The pink dome of my days is flowing.
In the heart of dreams there are golden sums.
I touched a lot of girls
He pressed a lot of women in the corner.

Yes! there is a bitter truth of the earth,
I spied with a childish eye:
Males lick in line
Bitch leaking juice.

So why should I be jealous of her?
So why should I be sick like that?
Our life is a sheet and a bed.
Our life is a kiss and a whirlwind.

Sing, sing! On a fatal scale
These hands are a fatal disaster.
Just you know, fuck them...
I will never die, my friend.

Unbearable.

From all sides.

Drink, otter, drink.

V.V. Mayakovsky

Swearing has accompanied Rus' since its inception. Authorities, social formations, culture and the Russian language itself change, but swearing remains unchanged.

Native speech

Almost the entire 20th century was dominated by the version that the words that we call swear words came into the Russian language from the Mongol-Tatars. However, this is a misconception. Swearing is already found in Novgorod birch bark charters, dating back to the 11th century: that is, long before the birth of Genghis Khan.

Revolt against matriarchy

The concept of “checkmate” is quite late. From time immemorial in Rus' it was called “barking obscene”. It must be said that initially swear language exclusively included the use of the word "mother" in a vulgar, sexual context. The words denoting the genital organs, which we today refer to swearing, did not refer to “obscene bark.”

There are a dozen versions of the checkmate function. Some scientists suggest that swearing appeared at the turn of society’s transition from matriarchy to patriarchy and initially meant the authoritative assertion of a man who, having undergone the ritual of copulation with the “mother” of the clan, publicly announced this to his fellow tribesmen.

Dog tongue

True, the previous version does not explain the use of the word “laya”. On this score, there is another hypothesis, according to which “swearing” had a magical, protective function and was called “dog tongue.” In the Slavic (and Indo-European in general) tradition, dogs were considered animals of the “afterlife” and served the goddess of death Morena. The dog who served evil witch, could turn into a person (even an acquaintance) and come with evil thoughts (to cast the evil eye, damage or even kill). So, feeling something was wrong potential victim Morena was just supposed to pronounce a protective “mantra”, that is, send him to “mother”. This was the time when the evil demon, the “son of Morena,” was exposed, after which he had to leave the man alone.

It is curious that even in the 20th century, people retained the belief that “swearing” scares away devils and that swearing makes sense even “for the sake of prevention,” without seeing a direct threat.

Calling the good

As already stated, Old Russian words, denoting the reproductive organs, began to be classified as “foul language” much later. In the pagan era, these lexemes were commonly used and did not have an abusive connotation. Everything changed with the arrival of Christianity in Rus' and the beginning of the displacement of old “filthy” cults. Sexually charged words were replaced with “Church Slavinisms: copulate, childbearing, penis, etc. In fact, there was a serious rational grain in this taboo. The fact is that the use of the previous “terms” was ritualized and associated with pagan fertility cults, special conspiracies, and calls for good. By the way, the word “good” itself (in the old Slavic - “bolgo”) meant “many” and was used at the beginning precisely in the “agricultural” context.

It took the church many centuries to reduce agrarian rituals to a minimum, but the “fertile” words remained in the form of “relics”: however, already in the status of curses.

Empress censorship

There is one more word that is unfairly classified today as swearing. For the purposes of self-censorship, let’s call it the “B” word. This lexeme quietly existed in the elements of the Russian language (it can even be found in church texts and official state documents), having the meanings “fornication”, “deception”, “delusion”, “heresy”, “error”. People often used this word to refer to dissolute women. Perhaps during the time of Anna Ioannovna this word began to be used with greater frequency and, probably, in the latter context, because it was this empress who banned it.

"Thief" censorship

As you know, in the criminal, or “thieves”, environment, swearing is strictly taboo. For a carelessly dropped obscene expression, a prisoner may face much more serious punishment than an administrative fine for public obscene language on the outside. Why do the “urkagans” dislike Russian swearing so much? First of all, swearing can pose a threat to “feni” or “thieves’ music.” The keepers of thieves' traditions understand well that if swearing replaces argot, they will subsequently lose their authority, their “uniqueness” and “exclusivity,” and most importantly, the power in prison, the elite of the criminal world - in other words, “lawlessness” will begin. It is curious that criminals (unlike statesmen) understand well what any language reform and borrowing other people's words.

Renaissance mate

Today's times can be called a renaissance of swearing. This is facilitated by the boom social networks, where people got the opportunity to swear in public. With some reservations, we can talk about legitimization obscene language. There is even a fashion for swearing: if previously it was the lot of the lower strata of society, now the so-called intelligentsia, the creative class, the bourgeoisie, women and children also resort to “sweet words”. It is difficult to say what is the reason for such a revival of “barking obscenities”. But we can safely say that this will not increase harvests, matriarchy will not win, and will not drive out demons...


Psychologists believe that foul language is an excellent way to relieve stress and restore energy. Some historians consider Russian swearing to be a consequence of the destruction of taboos. In the meantime, while experts are engaged in professional disputes, the people “don’t swear, they speak it.” Today we are talking about the origin of Russian swearing.

There is an opinion that in pre-Tatar Rus' they did not know “strong words”, and when swearing, they compared each other to various domestic animals. However, linguists and philologists do not agree with this statement. Archaeologists claim that the Russian mat was first mentioned in a birch bark document beginning of XII century. It is true that archaeologists will not make public what exactly was written in that document. Let's try to understand the intricacies profanity, which is an integral part of the Russian language.

As a rule, when talking about mat and its origin, linguists and philologists distinguish three main derived words. These derivatives include the name of the male genital organ, the name of the female genital organ, and the name of what happens in a successful combination of circumstances between the male and female genital organs. Some linguists, in addition to the anatomical and physiological derivatives, add a social derivative, namely, a word that is used to call a woman of easy virtue. Of course, there are other obscene roots, but these four are popularly the most productive and effective.


Delight, surprise, agreement and more

Perhaps the most frequently used word among profanity, the word that is most often written on fences throughout Russia, denotes the male genital organ. Linguists have never agreed on where this word came from. Some experts attribute Old Church Slavonic roots to the word, arguing that in ancient times it meant “to hide” and sounded like “to hove.” And the word “forge” in imperative mood sounded like "kui". Another theory attributes the word to Proto-Indo-European roots. In which the root "hu" meant "shoot".
Today it is extremely difficult to talk about the credibility of each of the theories. What can be stated unequivocally is that this word is very ancient, no matter how people with diosyncratic obscene vocabulary would like it. It is also worth noting that “this very word” of three letters is the most productive root that forms new words in the Russian language. This word can express doubt, surprise, indignation, delight, refusal, threat, agreement, despondency, encouragement, etc., etc. The Wikipedia article of the same name alone lists more than seven dozen idioms and words that are derived from this root.

Theft, fighting and death

The word for female genital organs in Russian obscene language less productive than the word - a representative of the stronger sex. Nevertheless, this word has given the Russian language quite a lot of expressions that perfectly reflect the harshness of Russian reality. Thus, words with the same root from this well-known word often mean: lie, mislead, beat, steal, talk incessantly. Set expressions, as a rule, indicate a course of events that does not unfold according to plan, educational process, fight, beating, failure and even breakdown or death.
Some particularly ardent linguists attribute the origin of this word to Sanskrit. However, this theory does not stand up to even the most humane criticism. The most convincing theory, researchers believe, is the origin of Proto-Indo-European languages. There, according to scientists, the words with the same root as the second most popular word in Russian language meant “saddle”, “what they sit on”, “garden” and “nest”. It is also worth noting that this word can have both a strictly negative and positive connotation.

About sexual intercourse and not only about it

The word that today in obscene vocabulary denotes sexual intercourse comes from the Proto-Indo-European language (jebh-/oibh- or *ojebh) and in its pure form means “to perform a sexual act.” In Russian, this word gave rise to great amount very popular idioms. One of the most popular is the phrase “fuck your mother.” Linguists claim that the ancient Slavs used this expression in the context of “Yes, I am fit to be your father!” Other expressions with this verb are also known today, meaning to mislead, express indifference, or make claims.

Devaluation of the mat

To be fair, it is worth noting that the ability to insert “ strong word"Many Russian writers were distinguished. There was swearing even in some poems. Of course, we are not talking about fairy tales or love lyrics, but about friendly epigrams and satirical works. And it is worth noting that the great Pushkin masters swear words organically and skillfully:

Be quiet, godfather; and you, like me, are sinners,
And you will offend everyone with words;
You see a straw in someone else's pussy,
And you don’t even see a log!

(“From the All-Night Vigil...”)

The trouble with the modern Russian language is that today, due to various circumstances, there is a devaluation of obscenities. It is used so widely that the expression of expressions and the very essence of swearing are lost. As a result, this impoverishes the Russian language and, oddly enough, the culture of speech. For today's situation, the words spoken by another famous poet– Vladimir Mayakovsky.


In 2013, March 19 State Duma The Russian Federation adopted a bill banning obscene language in the media. Those media outlets that still dare to use this or that “strong” word will have to pay a fine of about 200 thousand rubles. It is noteworthy that deputies from the faction “ United Russia", who commented on their actions as a desire to protect the country's population from immoral information environment. However, most Russians believe that fighting with swearing is useless. Neither campaigning nor fines will help with this. Main - internal culture and education.

And what kind of Russian doesn’t express itself? strong words? And it is true! Moreover, many swear words have been translated into foreign languages, but the interesting thing is that there are no full-fledged analogues of Russian swear words in foreign languages no and are unlikely to ever appear. It is no coincidence that not a single great Russian writer or poet avoided this phenomenon!

How and why did swearing appear in the Russian language?

Why do other languages ​​do without it? Perhaps someone will say that with the development of civilization, with the improvement of the well-being of citizens in the vast majority of countries on our planet, the need for swearing naturally disappeared? Russia is unique in that these improvements never occurred in it, and swearing in it remained in its virgin, primitive form...

Where did he come to us from?

Previously, there was a version that the mat appeared in dark times Tatar-Mongol yoke, and before the Tatars came to Rus', Russians did not swear at all, and when swearing, they called each other only dogs, goats and sheep.

However, this opinion is erroneous and is denied by the majority of scientific researchers. Of course, the invasion of nomads influenced the life, culture and speech of the Russian people. Perhaps such a Turkic word as “baba-yagat” (knight, knight) replaced social status and the floor, turning into our Baba Yaga. The word "karpuz" (watermelon) has turned into a well-fed little boy. But the term “fool” (stop, halt) began to be used to describe a stupid person.


Checkmate to Turkic language has nothing to do with it, because it was not customary for the nomads to swear, and swear words were completely absent from the dictionary. From Russian chronicle sources (the oldest known samples in birch bark documents of the 12th century from Novgorod and Staraya Russa. See “Obscene vocabulary in birch bark documents.” The specifics of the use of some expressions are commented on in the “Russian-English Dictionary” by Richard James (1618–1619). It is known that swear words appeared in Rus' long before Tatar-Mongol invasion. Linguists see the roots of these words in most Indo-European languages, but they became so widespread only on Russian soil.

So why, out of many Indo European peoples Is the swearing stuck only to the Russian language?

Researchers also explain this fact by religious prohibitions that other peoples had earlier due to the earlier adoption of Christianity. In Christianity, as in Islam, foul language is considered a great sin. Rus' adopted Christianity later, and by that time, along with pagan customs, swearing was firmly rooted among the Russian people. After the adoption of Christianity in Rus', war was declared on foul language.

The etymology of the word "mat" may seem quite transparent: it supposedly goes back to the Indo-European word "mater" in the meaning of "mother", which was preserved in various Indo-European languages. However, in special studies other reconstructions are proposed.

So, for example, L.I. Skvortsov writes: “The literal meaning of the word “checkmate” is “ loud voice, scream." It is based on onomatopoeia, that is, involuntary shouts of “ma!”, “me!” - mooing, meowing, roaring of animals during estrus, mating calls, etc.” This etymology might seem naive if it did not go back to the concept of an authoritative Etymological dictionary Slavic languages: “...Russian swearing, - a derivative of the verb “matati” - “to shout”, “loud voice”, “cry”, is related to the word “matoga” - “to swear”, i.e. to grimace, to break down, (about animals) to shake one’s head, to “whack” – to disturb, disturb. But "matoga" in many Slavic languages means “ghost, ghost, monster, bogeyman, witch”...

What does it mean?

There are three main swear words and they mean sexual intercourse, male and female genitalia, all the rest are derivatives of these three words. But in other languages, these organs and actions also have their own names, which for some reason did not become swear words? To understand the reason for the appearance of swear words on Russian soil, researchers looked into the depths of centuries and offered their own version of the answer.

They believe that huge territory between the Himalayas and Mesopotamia, on endless spaces lived a few tribes of the ancestors of the Indo-Europeans, who had to reproduce in order to expand their habitat, therefore great value given to childbearing function. And words associated with reproductive organs and functions were considered magical. They were forbidden to say “in vain,” so as not to jinx them or cause damage. The taboos were broken by sorcerers, followed by untouchables and slaves for whom the law was not written.

Gradually I developed the habit of using obscenities out of fullness of feelings or just to connect words. Basic words began to acquire many derivatives. Not so long ago, just a thousand years ago, the word denoting a woman of easy virtue, “f*ck,” became one of the swear words. It comes from the word “vomit,” that is, “vomit abomination.”


But the most important swear word is rightfully considered to be the same three-letter word that is found on the walls and fences of the entire civilized world. Let's look at it as an example. When did this three-letter word appear? One thing I will say for sure is that it is clearly not Tatar-Mongol times. In the Turkic dialect of the Tatar-Mongolian languages, this “object” is denoted by the word “kutah”. By the way, many now have a surname derived from this word and do not consider it at all dissonant: “Kutakhov.”

What was it called reproductive organ in ancient times?

Many Slavic tribes it was designated by the word “ud”, from which, by the way, comes the quite decent and censored “fishing rod”. But still, in most tribes, the genital organ was called nothing more than “f*ck.” However, this three-letter word was replaced around the 16th century by a three-letter, more literary analogue - “dick”. Most literate people know that this is exactly what (her) was the name of the 23rd letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, which after the revolution turned into the letter “ha”. To those who know this, it seems obvious that the word "dick" is a euphemistic replacement, resulting from the fact that the word being replaced begins with that letter. However, in reality it is not so simple.

The fact is that those who think so do not ask the question, why, in fact, is the letter “X” called dick? After all, all the letters of the Cyrillic alphabet are named Slavic words, the meaning of most of which is clear to the modern Russian-speaking public without translation. What did this word mean before it became a letter?

IN Indo-European language-based on which the distant ancestors of the Slavs, Balts, Germans and other European peoples spoke, the word “her” meant a goat. This word is related to the Latin "hircus". In modern Russian, the word “harya” remains a related word. Until recently, this word was used to describe goat masks used by mummers during carols.


The similarity of this letter to a goat was obvious to the Slavs in the 9th century. The top two sticks are his horns, and the bottom two are his legs. Then, among many nations, the goat symbolized fertility, and the god of fertility was depicted as a two-legged goat. This idol had an organ between its two legs, symbolizing fertility, which was called “ud” or “h*y”. In the Indo-European language this part of the body was called “pesus”, it corresponds to the Sanskrit “पसस्”, which in ancient Greek is translated as “peos”, Latin “penis”, Old English “faesl”. This word comes from the verb “peseti”, meaning the primary function of this organ is to emit urine.

Thus, we can conclude that swearing arose in ancient times and was associated with pagan rituals. Mat is, first of all, a way to demonstrate readiness to break taboos and cross certain boundaries. Therefore, the topic of swearing in different languages similar – the “bottom of the body” and everything related to the fulfillment of physiological needs. In addition to “corporal curses,” some peoples (mostly French-speaking) have blasphemous curses. The Russians don't have this.


And one more important point– you cannot mix argotisms with swearing, which are absolutely not swearing, but most likely just foul language. As, for example, there are dozens of thieves’ argotisms alone with the meaning “prostitute” in the Russian language: alura, barukha, marukha, profursetka, slut, etc.

RUSSIAN MAT

Every person in Russia from the very beginning early childhood begins to hear words that he calls obscene, obscene, obscene. Even if a child grows up in a family where they do not use swear words, he still hears it on the street, becomes interested in the meaning of these words, and pretty soon his peers explain the swear words and expressions to him. In Russia, attempts have been made repeatedly to combat the use of obscene words, introducing fines for swearing in in public places, but unsuccessfully. There is an opinion that swearing in Russia flourishes due to the low cultural level of the population, but I can name many names of highly cultured people of the past and present, who belonged and belong to the most highly intelligent and cultural elite and at the same time - great swearers in everyday life and not They avoid swearing in their works. I do not justify them and do not encourage everyone to use swear words. God forbid! I am categorically against swearing in public places, against the use of obscene words in works of art, and especially on television. However, swearing exists, lives and is not going to die, no matter how much we protest against its use. And there is no need to be hypocrites and close your eyes, we need to study this phenomenon both from the psychological side and from the point of view of linguistics.

I started collecting, studying and interpreting swear words as a student in the sixties. Protecting me PhD thesis was carried out in such secrecy, as if it were about the latest nuclear research, and immediately after the defense, the dissertation went into the special storage facilities of libraries. Later, in the seventies, when I was preparing my doctoral dissertation, I needed to clarify some words, and I was unable to obtain my own dissertation from the Lenin Library without special permission from the authorities. This was the case quite recently, when, as in the famous joke, everyone pretended to know diamat, although no one knew it, but everyone knew mate, but pretended not to know it.

Currently, every second writer uses in his works obscene words, we hear swear words from the television screen, but still for several years not a single publishing house to which I offered to publish a scientific explanatory dictionary of swear words decided to publish it. And only shortened and adapted for wide range readers, the dictionary saw the light of day.

To illustrate the words in this dictionary, I widely used folklore: obscene jokes, ditties that have long lived among the people, were often used, but were published in last years, as well as quotes from the works of classics of Russian literature from Alexander Pushkin to Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Many quotes are taken from the poems of Sergei Yesenin, Alexander Galich, Alexander Tvardovsky, Vladimir Vysotsky and other poets. Of course, I could not do without the works of Ivan Barkov, without “Russian Treasured Tales” by A. I. Afanasyev, without folk obscene songs, poems and poems, without modern writers, such as Yuz Aleshkovsky and Eduard Limonov. A treasure trove for researchers of Russian swearing is the cycle of hooligan novels by Pyotr Aleshkin, which are almost entirely written in obscene words. I could illustrate this dictionary only with quotations from his works.

The dictionary is intended for a wide range of readers: for those interested in swear words, for literary editors, for translators from Russian, etc.

In this dictionary, I did not indicate in what environment the word functions: whether it refers to criminal slang, youth slang or the slang of sexual minorities, because the boundaries between them are quite fluid. There are no words that are used in one environment. I also only indicated obscene meaning words, leaving other, ordinary meanings outside of it.

And one last thing. You are holding in your hands the explanatory dictionary “Russian swearing”! Remember that it contains only swearing, obscene, obscene words. You won't meet anyone else!
