It is human nature to express one’s emotions out loud. To this end, in all the languages of the world, many swear words and expressions have been created and interpreted. Tatars were no exception and came up with their own, unique Tatar curses.
Bizarre "basurman" expressions
The etymology of obscene words goes far into the past. What today is considered obscene and condemned was once used in pagan rites. The designation of male and female genital organs had a sacred meaning, personified fertility, and therefore, the prosperity of all things. Over time, these words changed their function and began to be used as basic curses with many forms and declensions.
Tatar curses are closely related to Russian profanity. The main words here are also the naming of the reproductive organs. There is an opinion that the Russian language is rich in obscene language. Tatar is not left behind. In his arsenal there are a huge number of words and speech turns that form distinctive curses in the Tatar language.

Close plexus of two languages
The Russian and Tatar languages have always closely coexisted with each other and borrowed words from each other. In the twentieth century, some linguists even felt that Tatar curses (or rather, Tatar-Mongolian) became a source for Russian obscene language. Today, many experts believe this version to be erroneous, since the Russian mat has pronounced Slavic roots. However, some of the expressions the Russian language still borrowed, for example, such a common expression as "Ekary Babai." Other Tatar curses with translation from the list above are used only by native speakers.
