@golgaloth what time frame is it set in? That would certainly have an impact.

@transitionalaspect An alternative timeline somewhere around 1800 - 1830 (maybe 1840)

@golgaloth is this picture AI generated slop?
Because I live in Czechia and "Ptcka" doesn't mean anything. It's not a word. Not even in local dialects.
And I have doubts about Slovakia too.
In many ways we (as former Czechoslovakia) might be closer to Poland and use Kurva (with v instead of w) -
@jackwilliambell and the Austrian dialect pronunciation would be “Schaas”
@golgalothThat I wouldn't have picked up on. My German is even worse than my Spanish, but it seems like almost everyone in Austria speaks some English, so it was never an issue for me.

The Turkish part is incorrect also

@golgaloth Oida. It's the most popular word in Vienna period and it has so many meanings, among others it's a cussword.
PS: And that map is probably AI generated, so hiding it as sensitive would be nice.

@paula More mid-nineteenth century but that's good.

@golgaloth @paula For mid-nineteenth century @abuerkl might have some ideas. For contemporary Vienna I can confirm Oida as the most popular swearword.
