in Spanish (only other language I speak) curse words are not as malleable as in English. They ussually mean what they mean and it is difficult to be creative in new meaning implication. In english, you can make any word mean something nasty

In Spanish it is more about the double entendre, the pun, the sounds of the curse in yr ear.

hard to explain.
