I was told that out of all living languages, Romanian is Latin's closest relative. It is very phonetic.

This is some Romanian's attempt to express their plea for love and intimacy in English (known to English speakers as "Fuck me").

Not only phonetic, but also hieroglyphic. Look at the second world. Must be ancient Egyptian´s close relative too.

Phonetic?   So...it sounds like "fuck me"? 


Thing is the word Fuck is actually an  acronym  Former unlawful carnal knowledge.  So not really a word so much as a legal term used in divorce  court. 


Weird how it became slang in America and Canada..Slang..a verb..a noun..an adverb..An adjective.

Yes, this is how they would write down the sound of "Fuck me" apparently.

Well so long as they ain't fucking mermaids on the backs of dolphins, in Atlantis and writing atlantian porn novels about it.

Grafetti on walls is enough I think.

No sea here so dolphins and mermaids are safe from Moldovans, ha ha.

I thought it was on of the known false etymologies, together with "Fornicating Under Consent of King".

Ha! that works too.

I think-If I'm not mistaken-DH Lawerance was one of the first authors to use the word as a verb.

I was in Trinidad in a taxi, and he stops to talk to a guy on the side of the road
"I tell you, don't you fuck at me!"
he shouts, and I wait for an argument to ensue, but
"I won't forget you" shouts the other guy.
