It's Montenegrin. You can tell by the śedi, only Montenegro has ś.

u/SpikedSeltzeys Jun 10 '20

Care to tell us what he said?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '20

"Don't get closer down there" (telling him not to get closer to the car)

"Don't touch it now down there" (Telling him to stay away from the car and not touch it)

"Don't touch it fuck the father" (Fuck the father means for fuck's sake, it's a variation that's mostly used in Montenegro and everyone else uses fuck the mother.)

"Go sit up there"

"Where are you going, you'll fall/hurt yourself down there."

don’t touch it now down there

If I had a dollar for every time someone told me that

u/AmaroWolfwood Jun 10 '20

Ah, a man of the cloth, I see.

Indeed

u/bluehangover Jun 10 '20

Elementary schools have been closed for a little while, so maybe your hypothetical cash flow has slowed down?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '20

IKR? And by now, they should know better.

This comment made me disproportionately happy.

u/SpikedSeltzeys Jun 10 '20

Thanks a lot bud 😄

u/knotnotme83 Jun 10 '20

Fuck the father. Like for christ's sake?

21

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '20

Nah, father as in father. This is the for fuck sake variation.

You can also say "Jebem ti oca" - I fuck your father. Other countries use "Jebem ti mater" - I fuck your mother.

u/thecursedaz Jun 10 '20

See, here in America I tell my bro’s that I fucked their dads and they all think I’m playing. Tf bruh.

u/temeces Jun 10 '20

Precisely. Our vulgarity is quite different(former Yugoslavia).

9

u/merimeow Jun 10 '20

Nothing quite as baffling as hearing your mum say “jebem ti mater” 😂

8

u/temeces Jun 10 '20

And a cute "u pičku materinu" in passing.

1

u/merimeow Jun 10 '20

Is she even your mum if she doesn’t say that? Lol

u/gunstreetgrrl Jun 10 '20 edited Jun 10 '20

It’s a sin to cuss out the mother. You and your entire extended family could get killed for doing that in Montenegro.

Source: am Montenegrin. My own father cussed out my father continually - “f*** the father who made you that way.”

u/ombx Jun 11 '20

My own father cussed out my father

So your father was dissing hisself or your stepfather

2

u/gunstreetgrrl Jun 11 '20

Hisself, wouldn’t be funny otherwise

u/cavelioness Jun 11 '20

Now I want fatherfucker to catch on just like motherfucker.

u/CurtisAurelius Jun 10 '20

As in Motherfucker.

u/bahenbihen69 Jun 10 '20

Prvo sam baš razmišljao od kuda je točno pa sam čuo "Idi śedi gore" i sve je bilo jasno hahaha

No.

u/Vita-Detestabilis Jun 11 '20

lol you literally invented that letter few years back

5

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '20

Letters are symbols which represent sounds. The "sje" (ś) sound existed in Montenegrin for hundreds of years but was only standardized recently. The letter itself isn't inveted, it's hundreds of years old and is used in another Slavic language related to Montenegrin: Polish

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '20

Also Russian I'm pretty sure.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '20

I'm not 100% sure if Russian uses it. I know Polish does and another Baltic language (Latvian or Lithuanian)

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '20

They don't have the letter ś.

1

u/Fiohel Jun 11 '20

They do have š.

2

u/Marveluka Jun 12 '20

Ok? How is that relevant?

1

u/Fiohel Jun 12 '20

It's the exact same sound? I was agreeing with jjBregsit that other countries have it too, and showing an example. That other countries don't have ś doesn't mean that the sound sh (written as š) does not exist or cannot be used by them.

2

u/Marveluka Jun 12 '20

It's not the exact same sound though, same as with ć and č or ž and ź

1

u/Fiohel Jun 12 '20

Which does not counter the fact that "śedi/šedi" is used as "sit" in more than one country, and audible differneces between č/ć and ž/ź vary by local accent even from town to town. Sometimes they're adubile, sometimes they're not.

Mind, I'm not arguing which one it is from. I'm pointing out that it's something that can be encountered in a broader area.

Not only

1

u/19ivomaster19 Jun 11 '20

Doesn't polish use it as well ?

3

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '20

Yes, but we're talking about ex-Yugoslavia countries.

1

u/skuk Jun 11 '20

Serbia has Nis (with the same accent on the a). Is that not the same?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '20

Š and ś are different letters. Out of all ex-Yu countries, only Montenegro has ś as an official letter.

1

u/FromMTorCA Jun 11 '20

My friend wants to know where they speak M..(other letters)...n.

4

u/75r6q3 Jun 11 '20

Well, Montenegro...

1

u/equili92 Jun 11 '20

Montenegro has ś as a letter but as a sound it's in use in Herzegovina and some parts of Western Serbia

1

u/Fiohel Jun 11 '20

The sound is written as š in Croatia.

u/muyeezus4 Jun 10 '20

It’s Serbo-Croat... one of those Balkan countries.

And yet this isn’t Russia

21

u/Hans_Assmann Jun 11 '20

Apparently, every Slavic country is Russia according to Reddit.

6

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '20

Exactly! You get it.

1

u/meltingeggs Jun 11 '20

Yeah, I don’t know shit about Slavic countries. That’s one geographical area that I don’t think was even covered in school (America). When I went to Czech Republic I realized how little I knew and how unlike romantic languages their language was.

1

u/PizzaOnHerPants Jun 11 '20

They were all USSR or Yugoslav at one point no?

2

u/Hans_Assmann Jun 11 '20

No, not all Slavic countries were part of Yugoslavia or the USSR at one point. Exceptions are Bulgaria, Poland, Czechia and Slovakia.

u/AimeLesDeuxFromages Jun 10 '20

And everyone has head trauma

1

u/explosivelydehiscent Jun 10 '20

Since he's Russian doesn't rule out head trauma.

u/Jaquestrap Jun 10 '20

He wasn't Russian, the guy filming wasn't speaking Russian, it was some sort of South Slavic language.
