Kai Shi I have these handy books called "Making Out in Japanese" 1 and 2. They're filled with all sorts of Japanese you wouldn't learn in a classroom. chikushou - Damn it. Usually said to yourself though... kuso - s**t! usotsuki - Liar! kono kuso-onna - You b***h! yariman - whore konjou nashi - You've got no balls/no bravery busu - ugly And many, many more...These books are highly entertaining but definitely not child friendly... That's awesome! What do they teach besides swears? I mean, it's not that I want to say incredibly vulgar things to people in Japanese. It's just that my textbooks don't teach us how to say anything impolite at all. And how am I ever going to be fluent if I can't swear at people? Or understand if they're swearing at me? XD

It's a lot of casual style speech for things like hanging out with friends, getting in fights, asking someone out on a date, going on a date, going a little further on a date wink and lots of other random stuff.

I'll probably buy it if I continue after next semester. ありがとう!
Does it start at a completely beginner level? Like assuming you know no Japanese at all?

Yep! It explains things quite nicely and has all the phrases/words written as romaji and hiragana as well.

Starry Starry Fright Kim Vana I want swear words because there are kids at school I really hate and my family pisses me off and I wanna swear at them in Japanese so they won't know what I'm saying. I know this sounds weird but can anyone help me? Swear words are the first things anybody should learn! biggrin The Japanese don't curse as much as English-speakers, but they have got a few words that, when said forcefully enough, can be construed as swear words. Aho/Baka - both of these mean idiot. I think "baka" is more commonly used the Tokyo region, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Teme (teh - may) - Means "b*****d". This one comes up in anime a lot, notably "Naruto". Yarou (Ya - row) - Another way of saying "b*****d", but I've also seen it translated as "scamp" or "rascal". zakennayo (zah - ken - nah - yo) - This is the closest you can come to saying "f*** off" in Japanese. It's also commonly seen in anime, but it will often be translated as "Stop kidding around!" or "Don't joke around!", which is the most accurate translation. The Hana Yori Dango subs I posted translate it as "Cut the crap!". Kutabare (Coo - ta - bar - ray) - Another way of saying "f*** you". I've also seen it translated as "go to hell" or "drop dead". In any case, it is not a nice expression. Hope these help! Arigatou sensei biggrin *bows*
