Untranslated Cussing

Post by Super Aggro Crag » #654234

i think words like FUCK and SHIT shouldn't be automatically translated so if you are a lizard who doesn't speak galactic common you will hear like Bizouxein dexting FUCK dzxingpa SHIT and if a lizard speaks in draconic near a human it's a bunch of hissy noises but also BITCH and SSSHIT

i think cusses should be universal so i know if someone is mad

Counter idea, all species now instinctively curse in their native language even if they are speaking a different language, and we make up words for their specific curse words.

this should be an option, in case somebody doesn't want it, like you could pick a language you know, and always curse in that language
