We're certainly not short on things in Portuguese (or any language) that actually need doing. — [ R·I·C ] opiaterein — 03:23, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

How is this any different than f**k? Nadando 03:38, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

If it were up to me, we wouldn't have that either. — [ R·I·C ] opiaterein — 23:12, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm struggling to find a reason to delete it. If you see f*der you're unlikely to know what it means, so that's a reason to look it up. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:57, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Do you often read Portuguese? — [ R·I·C ] opiaterein — 13:05, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

No, do you? Mglovesfun (talk) 13:08, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Keep, it it can be cited to meet WT:CFI. I've found that in some older English texts, items like this sometimes appear that leave me initially baffled when I read them. If you came across "br—h" (which I can cite), would you have the slightest clue what it meant? Ideas about what words are obscene change over time, and so do the euphemistic forms. --EncycloPetey 04:28, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Keep as with f**k and per EP. What's br—h, by the way, EP? (Guess: breech.)​—msh210℠ 23:13, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Yes. You can see the quote in question on the entry for breech. --EncycloPetey 23:17, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
