This post has been updated for 2015, and includes a lot of extra words and

examples. This post is for educational purposes and is not meant to offend anyone.
If you do become offended, please navigate to a different part of the blog and keep
in mind that this is the only post that uses naughty language like this. Also realize
that actually saying these words to a native Russian speaker could land you in a lot
of trouble, so make sure you can walk the walk if youre gonna talk the talk!

In Russia, there are a list of words that are called (mat), which is short for
[matrnj jzk]. Some of the words below are on the list. These
words can actually get you in trouble in Russia, because they can be considered
disorderly conduct (mild hooliganism). These words are censored in the media.

I have added IPA transcriptions in brackets ([]) for the words below. Romanized
Russian text is provided in parentheses for those of you that do not know Cyrillic.
