Hoglund's Contributions to Nordic Profanity

by Nafuudoril, Adjunct Linguist, College of Tomes

---

Hoglund offered many great and puzzling innovations to the colorful language of the Nords. Many of these phrases befuddle and confound those of us who were born into a higher society. Still, the Nords insist on their usage, even outside of dusty-floored taverns. Therefore it is of utmost importance to know what Hoglund's phrases mean. I have translated them into their equivalent High Elven phrase so that you do not have to inquire as to their meaning.

1. By the latrine-scented smelling salts! (I find this most surprising.)
2. Eat a Goblin's hind cheeks you rosy-faced horker. (You do not have the experience to make such claims.)
3. Hoarfrost and blizzards! (A phrase used to show emotional emphasis.)
4. Your rusty flute couldn't make a Banshee scream. (Your hygiene is terrible and your performance is lacking.)
5. Are the arse's pale in Sovngarde? (The previous point was obvious.)
6. Choke on Dibella's bosom. (Do be quiet.)
7. Tighten your laces or stand in Kyne's breeze. (Make a decision.)
8. Splintering hog sticker! (An expression indicating aggravation.)
9. Mount the bull before it mounts you. (Prepare for trouble.)
