I was curios,what are the Dark Elf curses?There favorite seems to be s'wit,but I have no idea what it's translation could be.

My best guess is that it means something like 'fool' or 'idiot'. But that's just my take on it.

I believe there's another thread on this, or perhaps something buried within the early posts of Random Bits of Knowledge.

another seemingly favorite is Fetcher
I'm sure you can guess a few possibilities for this one. lol.

I swear I read a book on this...uuh Fetcher is usually in reference to you being subordinate...like "errand boy"

'N'wah' is a Dunmer taunt for 'foreigner' or 'slave.'

There is no known translation for s'wit.

'Fetcher' presumably is a derrogatory term for 'thief.'

Not a swear-word, but something I noticed- "B'Vec." The Dunmer woman says it in Tribunal during the play Misc. quest during the script. It's a shortening of 'by Vivec.'

Well I always assumed 's'wit' it was an abbreviation for softwit, meaning idiot.

They say "You filthy s'wit!" So,they could be saying'You filthy idiot!"?
