you a hockey fan?
We had dinner with Bobby Holik tonight, he is one of the nicest guys in the world.
I wish I had asked you to teach me some choice swear words in Czech.

what was he doing in the bosom of the west?

Heh, I could have helped with the vocabulary for sure! All Czechs are very fond of our hockey so indeed I know him. His father and uncle were hugely known and popular players in the olde Czechoslovakia, and Reichel-Jagr-Holik was one of the top youngsters lines at the WJC ever.

So does he mountain bike?

He lives in Jackson, he is one of my wife's clients. He totally gives back, he coaches the local HS team and other things.

So how would I have said "No way, motherfucker!" In Czech?

So how would I have said "No way, motherfucker!" In Czech?

I can think of 1/2 dozen ways to say that, it really depends on the context. Give me a bit more.

 

[rideit]

Jovially, as among friends. That sort of thing.

 

[StiHacka]

I have to think about this a little. We have some quality words for "motherfucker" but they may not be the best choice for "jovially among friends".

 

[rideit]

Got it.

 

[Nick]

"motherfucker" is universally understood. It's used on all 11 continents.

 

[stevew]

He lives in Jackson

whoever handled his money during his playing days gets a A+....

 

[rideit]

He made piles. He has a house in one of the nicest parts of town.
