*Need GERMAN help*

Journal Entry: Wed May 14, 2008, 9:24 AM
This time about German expression.
If you're German or familiar with the culture, please help me.

You may know I've submited some my original character, Faust doodles here. He's an important character in my manga I'm working on now and he's some kind of spirit living in the magic book called "Faust". Of course his motif is Goethe's Faust and so he's German too. The hero, Licht is a Japanese highschool student (though his name doesn't seem Japanese, lol) gets the grimoire of Faust somehow.

Now these are questions.

1) What do German say when they swear or curse? (such like "Damned", "Shit", "Idiot" or "Son of a bitch")
2) What do German say when they admire or praise? (such like "Great", "Cool", "Wonderful" or "Nice")
3) What do generally German like? (food, big name, anything will be ok)
4) What do generally German dislike? (I was surprised when I heard that German dislike to sniffle!)

Actually there're few German friends of mine. Also I've never been to German yet though I'm a fan of Goethe.
I hope you help me.

"verdammt" or if your saying "i don't give a" its :das ist mir schei*with that weird b thing*egal.

I so love Goethe's Faust. Wonderful book. Mephisto is still better than Faust. XD

1) Scheiße, verdammt, (Hurensohn, Spast. <- really hard words)
2) Super, toll, wunderbar, grandios, nett.
3) That's hard... Soccer, beer, (all kind of) sausages,
4) Even that I am german... I can't think of something in generel. Ö_Ö

It's great to hear German opinion! :D
Me too, I prefer Mephisto actually, lol.

So, are "Hurensohn" and "Spast" indecent expression?
Haha, maybe it's hard for me to tell what Japanese generally dislike too. Thanks.

No prob.
Those words are hard insults which you say to someone if you have: 1. no behaviour and 2. are so mad that the next step would to punsh the opponent. XD

Hm~I think I just came up with something. Nowadays germans have a problem with authoritis. Like the politicians, who just grap their daily allowance and do nothing, or the bank managers who have salarys which are beyond of fairness.
