Shíbā Significant 操你祖宗十八代 Cào Nǐ Zǔzōng Dài Fuck

操你祖宗十八代!

Cào nǐ zǔzōng shíbā dài!

Fuck eighteen generations of your ancestors! An extremely strong insult. All multiples of nine are significant in Chinese culture because nine, 九 jiǔ (joe), is pronounced the same as the word for “long-lasting,” written 久. Eighteen, 十八 shíbā (shih bah), is itself significant because it sounds like 要发 yào fā (yow fah), which means “one will prosper.”
