devil is depahun (revisited)

depahun = devil (noun) (some things Google found for "depahun": a very rare term; similar Le Pahun is a very rare last name; similar Pahun is a rare last name; bad OCR of old text documents)

Word derivation for "devil" :
Basque = deabru, Finnish = paholainen
Miresua = depahun

My previous Miresua conlang word for devil was peraulo, which was an alphabetic scramble. I decided to redo this word to start with the letter D, which is unusual in Miresua.

When this word is used as a swearword in Miresua, it'll be a mild one. Such as in "What the devil?".

Quite understandably the word devil does not appear in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or Through the Looking-Glass.

ass is irpe

irpe = ass (noun, profanity) (some things Google found for "irpe": an uncommon term; IRPE stands for Iowa Recognition for Performance Excellence; IRPE Prize (International Recognition of Professional Excellence) honors young ecologists; at Troy University IRPE stands for Institutional Research, Planning and Effectiveness; user names; Irpe Spa company of Italy; obsolete English word meaning "a fantastic grimace or contortion of the body")

Word derivation for "ass" (or "arse") :
Basque = ipurdi, Finnish = perse
Miresua = irpe

As in English, this word can be used as a profane term for the buttocks or a mild swearword.

Usually I like to make my Miresua words the average length of the Basque and Finnish words. This word is a letter shorter, but that is within my allowable range. At four letters, it's an even alphabetic mixture -- it contains the two common letters (p and r) and a vowel from each the Basque and the Finnish words.

hell is vertuni

vertuni = hell (noun) (some things Google found for "vertuni": a rare term; an unusual last name, or perhaps a misspelling of Italian name Vertunni; On EVE online game universe Vertuni Logistics Fleet Support is a corporation; similarly named "Ventuny" is a town in Ukraine)

Word derivation for "hell" :
Basque = infernu, Finnish = helvetti
Miresua = vertuni

The Finnish word "helvetti" is apparently the mildest of the "Big Five" Finnish curse words. It even starts like the English word "hell".

The Basque word looks like the English word "infernal", which is derived from Latin. Basque is a language peculiarly lacking in swearwords, but you can be told to go to this "not nice" place.

Notice that the Basque word contains a "f". This is the first "f" I've encountered in building Miresua words! The letter "f" is rarely used in Basque, and not used in Finnish, except for in loan words. I eliminated "f" from my Miresua conlang because Finnish uses the letter "v". In English "f" and "v" are similar in pronunciation, both are what is called labiodental fricatives.

shit is kaspa

kaspa = shit (noun, profanity) (some things Google found for "kaspa": an uncommon term; user names; musician Kaspa da Ghost; a last name or part of a last name; Kaspa Transmissions of New Zealand; KASPA commercial refrigeration of Bulgaria; a first name that can be feminine from India; KASPA stands for Kansas Association of School Personnel Administrators; means "excessively, to surpass" in Ainu which is a nearly-extinct language of Japan; means "bad" in fictional language Cipsa; means "corn cob" in Quechua which is a major Native American language of the Andes region of South America; places in Nepal and Russia)

Word derivation for "shit" (crap) :
Basque = kaka, Finnish = paska
Miresua = kaspa

I think my conlang needs some swearwords. Finnish is a language that truly excels in cursing, and Basque is a language almost lacking in swearwords. This Basque word is obviously borrowed from the Spanish word "caca".

This word will be used as it is in English, a mild swearword that can be mean "crap" or "shoddy" or "broken". Basque and Finnish seem to use their words this way too.
