How to say "fuck" in Japanese
Choosing the right word
- interjection, noun, suru verb, intransitive verbThe direct loanword for the bare word 'fuck'. Vulgar and colloquial but less common, it is mostly a word to recognize in crude casual speech rather than one to reach for yourself.
- godan verbA slang verb for the sexual act itself: 'to bang, to fuck'. Crude and less common, it fits rough casual banter about sex, not polite or neutral description.
Neither is a neutral choice — both are vulgar and less common: use 「ファック」 for the bare loanword 'fuck' itself and 「パコる」 when you need a slang verb meaning 'to bang, to fuck'.
