How many languages can you swear in?
It counts even if you only know one or two cuss words/phrases.

Seven, in my case. English, Spanish, French, German, Ancient Greek, Russian, and Japanese.

2. Klingon?!
Care to share?

I seem to recall that "QuatlH" is "why?", but that is it, and it's rather obviously no curse.
