1: Technically, that’s “damn awesome”. The more literal translation of fucking would involve the word “fick”, the most idiomatic version “verfickt geil”. I don’t really see it used even in rougher slang, so I feel like the general equivalent in terms of usage would be “verdammt”.
How do you translate made up slang words into another language? Do you just discover which made up slang words they have for the same things and then use those words? What if the other language doesn’t have equivalent slang?
If they could reconcile their differences, you could eat chicken wings while learning how to say “jumbo bazoingas” in several languages.
I do wish Duolingo had slang and curse lessons
That would be fucking awesome
Das wäre verdammt¹ geil
There, learned a German phrase ;-)
Pronunciation in IPA:
das 'vɛːrə fɛɐ̯ˈdamt ˈɡaɪ̯l

Danke! I’ve always wanted to learn German.
And if you skip your lesson, you become the next set of “chicken” wings

Then you just look at the jumbo bazoingas and stop worrying about it.
Nice
