FRISIAN:
Sukkel... ‡
DUTCH:
Sukkel... ‡
‡) “Dork...” / “Wimp...” / “Pisher...” / “Putz...” / “Pussy...” [ But not
“nerd” — nerds
actually being cool after a fashion, or at least adept at techy things... ]
NOTE: Frisian loan word, still used in Dutch & Frisian. Not the harshest of
invective in either language... Still, useful as a sort of calesthenics, invective warm-ups, to pace yrself.
