A Moment Of Shock

Attention, speakers or studiers of European languages!

 

I need three interjections.

 

Say you’re in the shower, doing whatever it is you’re normally doing in the shower. Shampooing up, singing opera, making those shower faces, generally in the state of meditative zen nowness that is The Shower, and you turn around AND SEE A HAIRY SPIDER THE SIZE OF YOUR FIST HANGING IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE JEEZUS CHRIST!

 

Assuming you are a native speaker, aside from the generic “AAAAAGH”, what do you yell in:

 

-German?

-French?

-Russian?

 

Bonus points if the Russian exclamation can also be provided in the Cyrillic alphabet.

I was just giving her all the French exclamations at the top of my head. And though I personally would say something like "shit" or "fuck" if a situation like that presented itself, I know not others would say the same thing.

Oh yeah, "putain", totally forgot about that one. I used it when almost slipping on dog shit in Chatalet-les-Halles this summer. :)

Sorry about that, I meant to post a new comment, but accidentally clicked "reply to this" instead... I wasn't criticizing your suggestions.

I didn't think you were doing that at all. :)
