One of my favorite sport stories involved Ilie Nastase, the Rumanian tennis player. I read that Nastase could swear profusely in the local language of wherever he was playing tennis. It made communicating his feelings to the official and line judges that much simpler.
How considerate. But wait, here I am about to play a tournament in Budapest and I just don't know how to express myself. How do you say %#@@!%* in Hungarian? Or Rumanian? Or Hebrew?
Now you can find out: The Swearsaurus. Or "Your Guide to Swearing in 165 Languages."
Let's hear it for cultural diversity.
