Nescio de quo loqueris. Te oportet futuere tete.
I had no idea there were swears in Latin.
I only know Romanes Eunt Domus ๐
Pretty sure you can swear in any language, or at least arrange words such as to heavily imply it.
Ok, maybe not Linear A or something
Ah but Linear B, there's where all the best swears live
ahahahhaha
