I remember going through my university library and finding a book lamenting the fact that the noble art of swearing has devolved into a series of four letter words...
I'd like to find that book again some day.

Of course swearing is all much better in the original Klingon.

Yeah... I don't remember there being much interesting swearing in the Klingon Dictionary.

Y'know whenever people complained about Klingon being a made up language I say that at least it gets people interested in languages, but I don't really know...

PWA, it means literally "pig whore", but we use the word porco/porca (pig or pork) in front of other insults to just make them worse. Sometimes it makes for some interesting exclamations, that aren't necessary rude, like porca miseria (pig poverty) or porco cane, which means "pig dog" and doesn't make much sense if you think about it.

I thought pig dogs were dogs that you hunted pigs with?

I dunno... maybe they get loose or there are dangerous wild boar or something?
