Ethnic Slurs for your Nationians

Postby Augarundus » Wed Feb 17, 2010 7:14 pm

What are some terms considered insulting, derogatory, or slang for a member of your nation?

SLANG:
Aug - Slang, oftentimes a term in wartime.

Phlems- Slang, referring to the guttural language of the Augarians.

Augarians- Technically slang (a citizen of Augarundus is an Augarian; Augarundus isn't the real name of the, nation, Augrundia, and citizens are Augrundians. Augarundus means "High Augrundia/Superior Augrundia" and a resident of the capitol of Augaria is Augarian. Still, it's no longer slang, and is now the common term for an Augrundian; you will refer to them as Augarians).

Derogatory/Insulting

Hawks/Birds- Insult referring to the beak-like shape of an Augrundian nose.

Ravens- Insult referring to the national animal, the Raven, and the Augrundian nose.

Judges- Insult referring to the genocidal views of the former Communist government.

Iraes- The ultimate insult of an Augarian, mocking the national anthem (Dies Irae) and referring to Irae (Wrath) to describe Augarian culture; violent, cruel, and backward. It's an insult to the intelligence of an Augarian.
Libertarian Purity Test Score: 160
Capitalism is always the answer. Whenever there's a problem in capitalism, you just need some more capitalism. If the solution isn't capitalism, then it's not really a problem. If your capitalism gets damaged, you just need to throw some capitalism on it and get on with your life.

I'm actually still waiting for people to come up with one. I figure that a racist slur for a group isn't given to it by the group itself, so I'm waiting for someone to make one up. The most insulting thing I've heard so far is "Americanian", which even I've grown accustomed to using at a few select times. And even that's not an insult; it only sounds derogatory in certain contexts.

As for others, we have a multitude of ethnic slurs for every damned foreign savage on the planet.

New Olwe:
Ol' Wieners - Sounds similiar to Olweaner
Wand Wogs - Referance to magical savages
Wand Wops - Referance to magical savages with Italian names
Wand Wanker - Another referance to magic using tarts

Goldsaver:
Commie Nips - Communist Nipponese
Banzays - Referance to the shout "Banzai"

Augarundus:
Ogg - Referance to "Augarundus" being difficult to pronounce, and the general belief that it consists of primitive cave people.
Oggie - Milder version of above

It's pretty hard to insult a Fatatatutian. We're generally quite oblivious to what other people think of us. In fact, we're pretty oblivious in general. The joke is that if there was an elephant sitting on the couch, most Fatatatutians wouldn't notice unless they were looking for spare change.

We've been called Fatties, but we don't mind. In a lot of cases, it's true anyway.

There really aren't any ethnic slurs in reference to Maraqueans, but we have lots of ethnic stereotypes!

Unless someone wants to come up with one, so it's unique and authentic. :p

I haven't seen one that really works for Sarzonians. However, I've come up with a couple for other nations:

Slang: Doomies (for subjects of Doomingsland. I coined it during a war and it stuck. Even Doom sometimes referred to his people as Doomies in IM convos.)

Slur: Packies (for Pacitalians.)

Noddies - Used as a derogatory towards all people of the Brotherhood, but we are in the group so iit still offends us.

Darkies - More of a sexist term against our women

Wusses - Sexist term against our males

Pinkos - Often used against our government style by non-communist nations.

Fakes - Used by other communist who claim we have betrayed Marx's true system of government.

Smarkee - We never knew how this originated, but it has been used towards us in hateful ways, so we just started getting angry at the term.

Maraque:

Ques: Essentially implies they have no minds of their own and rely on their socialist government to provide for them.

Maq: Stupid people who are afraid of work.

Suso: A term for those who look ugly.

New Nicksyllvania


Nick: A mere simplification of their real racial name; though it is an insult as they have only one real name...

Predator: Reference to the fact that they like to hunt things, especially lesser humans. *Cough* There is another joke. *Cough

General Terms:

Tral: Implies that they would make a good a slave.

Heo: Savage.

Gnome: Implies that a person is short, stubborn, and stupid. Most likely fun to kick as well.

Caker: Means that said woman would make a good sex slave.

Tesy: Simply put, it is a Scandinvan term to indicate that someone is little better then a small boy and has a tiny pair of testicles.

Quasi: Means that someone cannot decide what ideology they really wish to follow, so they decide to throw them all into a pot and see how they work together. Really meant to imply a person is too foolish to make up their mind about politics.

Humpy McGee
: A term for a person who procreates with whomever, or whatever, they want.

Moulo: People who marry people of other races.

Crabbert: Derogatory term for those who have sex with the same gender; based off the perception that people who are homosexual, or bisexual, are likely to have pubic crabs.

More to come for other nations.

Olkjestadis

Ork: So named because of the similar sound of the Orlkjestadi name to something spoken in the language of the Tolkienesque Orcs; "Uglúk u bagronk sha pushdug Saruman-glob búbhosh skai!" Became popular thanks to the stereotype of the grubby, cannibalistic Orlkjestadis portrayed in Avenio's innumerable political cartoons.

Avenese

D'aa'k: Derogatory term devised by the native Tikalans to describe the Francophone Avenese settlers, loosely translated to mean 'White Wig', a jab at the age-old Avenese custom of wearing 18th century-style wigs.

Americania

AmeriCon: Coined by an Avenese newspaper editor, 'AmeriCon' is an amalgamation of 'Americanian Conservative', frequently exchangable with 'Americanian Con', signifying the stereotypical money-grubbing Americanian most Avenese picture when the Americanian name is brought up.

Maraque:

Quack: A jab at the Maraquean's odd practice of elective monarchies, which the staunchly anti-monarchist (Most Avenese are descended from Girondist revolutionaries) Avenese regard as patently insane.
