WordSafety – Check a name for unwanted meanings in foreign languages

For each language I used several random sources on the web, sort-of crosschecked for multiple spellings, etc.

This Hindi site was definitely my favorite:

After all the insane insults that I'm too shy to repeat, there's an awesome deadpan note at the end: "Learn to avoid these Hindi Bad Words in your Hindi conversation." Thanks for teaching them first?!

These are brilliant:

Gaand main lassan: Garlic in ass

Is this an insult or an old medical remedy?

Lundoos: Born into this world from a dick

You really have a word for this?

Toto: Penis

There must've been some giggles in the 80's music scene.

Teri Jhanten Kaat kar tere mooh par laga kar unki french beard bana doonga: I will cut your pubic hair and stick them on your face and make a goatee on your face.

Ohkaay

Those are some wonderfully imaginative insults. I did like that near the end, after endless filth, they've put "Why are you boring me with this useless narrative?"
