I have been reminded that Spanish is very similar here, the standard filler word in many Latin American countries is "esto" ("this") just as "nèi ge" is "that" Hopefully there's no language where "esto" is a highly offensive racist slurhttps://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1305523212235599875 …

Kind of like US vs UK English speakers fighting over the word "c*nt" and whether it's okay to use that word as a general swear word like "asshole"

It's interesting what makes an obscene word become "generic" that way Like in Italian "cazzo" (cock) is just a general thing you say when angry, you yell it like "Fuck!" as an expletive or you call someone "cazzo" like "asshole"
