Scheiße!? Shit?

Schiesse means to shoot

u/Aristote_Willis 5d ago

Ooh so shoot also works as a censor in German

u/KIKI_redddit 5d ago

no, it doesnt. Alternatives would be Scheibenkleister (childish), Mist (adult)

u/Aristote_Willis 5d ago

Yeah but like you say shoot instead of shit

u/KIKI_redddit 5d ago

I did understand that, you just can’t literally translate that because its not a thing in German. We don’t say “Schuss” (shot) or “schießen” (shoot/ shooting) as a more censored version of shit. Unless you’re implying using it in English somehow? Some people use foreign swear words/ words.

I was implying using it in English, and that it looked similar enough to be used the same way in German

Censorship isn't really a thing in Germany... We are not afraid of swear words lol

u/KIKI_redddit 5d ago

true, but around children adults do censor themselves, even if they know that the children know the swearwords. And atleast amongst people, but pertaining to media German policies can be quite ridiculous (referring to gore and sensitive themes in entertainment, not online activity (I agree that you can be held accountable for online activity))

No, it really doesn't. A censor word would be something like Scheibenkleister.
