Today, it’s Spanish Swear Words time! And I’m not just talking about the Pajero car which is sold in English speaking territories, because pajero is a Spanish Swear Word!
But if you want to learn ‘proper Spanish’ check out..
Inevitably, when you start learning a new language, you’re going to start speaking the slang or expletive expressions because that’s what the locals do! I think some of the first Spanish words I learnt were slang, thanks to some friends from Barcelona that I met in Africa.
So what are some of the best Spanish Swear Words and Curses?
Triple-hijueputa – Three times motherf&*ker.
Pelotudo – You have big balls (testicles) but in a dumb way
Perro – Dog. Often used as “Perro hijueputa”
Polla – Female chicken, also penis
Gonorrea – A really mean person, also is a sexually transmitted disease
Uy, que care-chimba – Hey, penis face.
Me cago en la leche! – I s&*t in the milk! (means something like “s&*t, i’ve have bad luck”)
Yo cago en la leche de tu puta madre– I s&*t in your whore mother’s milk
Tu hermano no tiene la ingle – Your brother has no groin
Cagaste y saltaste en la caca – You s&*t and jumped in it
They were more than happy to educate me with a tonne of Spanish swear words and curses. Actually, the words of any new language you learn are probably going to be expletives (see some Russian Swear Words for examples!)
I mean, many people don’t speak proper English, and communicate in a series of slang words, sentences, or even whole conversations!
And Spanish is no different!
Spanish is a very expressive language and I think it reflects the people that use it as their first language.
Like English, Spanish has morphed into different sorts of slang because it’s been exported all over the world, thanks to the Spanish Empire (check out some funny Spanish Translations from Colombia here!).
Of course, Spanish then mixes with the native languages and out comes something new!
So here you go, here are some Spanish Swear Words, Curses, Slang, and Expletives that range from not too bad to downright offensive!
If you don’t like swearing, stop reading now!
A silly, not so definitive list of Spanish Swear Words, Curses, Slang and Expletives!

This of course, is just a small sample of the Spanish swear words and slang that’s out there.
I’m not exactly fluent in Spanish, but I’ve used some of these terms above and it’s all taken in a light hearted way!
But if you’re a native Spanish speaker, I’m sure you’ve got loads more of great expressions!
If you do, leave your funniest and favourite one in the comments below!

Ha ha, these are great – yes, Spanish is an expressive language!
Always good fun to learn these expression!
I love the way these insults just make me laugh in the middle of class.
Haha this list is awesome. One I often hear in Latin America is “A la madre” which literally means to the mother, but is somehow offensive.
I think any Spanish swear word mentioning mother is offensive!
Hi! Very nice site to learn new words. But I believe your friends from Barcelona were not Spanish at all. More than 90% of the words are originally from South America, in Spain we use different ones. My favorite is “me cago en tú Puta madre, hijo de la gran puta” 😉
Cojones!
You left off some very ones. Por ejemplo,
La tuya
La tuya aparece como una puta y huelle como un caballo
Gato.
Like in Australia, best mates call each other cunt, in Mexico and Southwest US calling someone a cabron was a term of endearment.
Even just La could get you seriously messed up. Be very careful talking about anyone’s mother.
Verga could also mean something mighty. There is a Mexican grandmother who wanted a giant verga on her tomb. I’ve seen the pictures of it.
Care pija – another way of calling someone a dickhead or penis face.
Oh, another is to never call a male a gato or meow towards him. A gato is a cat and it’s taken as a serious insult.
Watch out for this one. Si te quieres chingaso conmigo, tu lo tienes. Por vida o por muerte. – If you want to fuck with me you can have it. For life or death.
