It’s not even a real German word as far as I know, they just used it in VW commercials in the 80s and we took to yelling it at each other in place of “Fuck you”. Some of my cousins and I still do.
My daughter says “Biscuits!” and then yesterday realized “Wait, biscuits are delicious,” and got upset that her little tantrum word isn’t negative enough.
My friend in one of my Russian classes suggested that almost any Russian word could sound like a curse word. “Понедельник! Среда!” That sounds like I’m really chewing you out, but all I’m saying is “Monday! Wednesday!” To this day I like to use those.
my dad likes saying lets get your poop in a scoop. i dont say it but it makes me giggle every time i hear it. and its true.
i gotta get my shit together
Skunk cabbage; I heard/read some advice several years ago to substitute the name of a flower instead of a curse word. I just chose a flower that fits the situation!
It’s a Japanese word that literally means “I turned it off” or something similar. It’s figurative meaning is “I have made a mistake.” I learned it in a James Bond book (Thunderball?).
It has all the requisites for a curse word: it starts out sounding like “SH*T,” has soft consonants, hard consonants and can be dragged out if need be: ” SHIIIMAAAATTTAAAA!” And it sounds dirty, too.
Instead of saying “Oh shit” I’ll sometimes say “Oh shiazin in me haizin” don’t ask me why or what it means. Also I often say dickens and will pair it with other nonsensical jargon. For example: “Holy dicken in me dockin and a cockin in me bockin!” That comes from a Youtuber who also talks like that for some reason and I adopted it after hearing him say it like 8000 times. Again don’t ask why or what the deal is with it anything. There’s probably just something severely wrong with me and also that YouTuber. It all still sounds kinda inappropriate not to mention ridiculous but it’s not swearing technically and it makes people laugh.
Got dang it, Bobby – instead of using the lords name in vain, although I’m not very religious, but I try not to say god damn out loud, even typing it out is iffy

Baka aho — Japanese for “stupid jerk.” Japanese doesn’t really have swearing per se, they’re too polite.
There’s also “devour fleculence” — it means “eat shit” with overly complex words.
Son of a biscuit eater. 😂😂😂😂
I say “RATS!” which seems to amuse those around me.
“Well, poop” does the trick when I’m in a G-rated space.

I’m french so I use ancient words that sounds polite but are in fact curse words.
I often say “enflure” wich is the nice version of “enfoiré/bâtard” (motherfucker/bastard)
Or I say “Bigre” instead of “Oh merde/putain !” “Oh fu** !”
My daughter says “Biscuits!” and then yesterday realized “Wait, biscuits are delicious,” and got upset that her little tantrum word isn’t negative enough.

I leave a short pause of silence where the curse should be, like I’ve been edited for TV. It’s surprisingly effective, and kinda fun.

None. Swearing has more emphasis.

In Polish, we often use terms related to animals. My favourite is ‘pisa kość’, which means ‘dog bone’.
The most popular are ‘kurcze’ – ‘chick’ and ‘kurza twarz’ – ‘chicken face’
There’s words besides curse words!?
Sugar Honey Ice Tea!
Cheese and rice.
“Sugar buttons”… I like to say it in a southern accent, and I don’t know why. And fiddlesticks. Just goofy to lighten the mood.
Skunk cabbage; I heard/read some advice several years ago to substitute the name of a flower instead of a curse word. I just chose a flower that fits the situation!
