Danish term or phrase: sjoveren
Den her er fra "Direktoeren for det hele" (Lars von Trier). Hvad betyder "i sjoveren"?

Direktøren bliver liderlig på dig! Der hænger
jo nok stadigvæk en lille smule homofili i ***sjoveren***.
Direktøren skal straks være der… Og hvordan vurderer
du så troværdigheden i den replik, smutte!

agree  Christine Andersen: Bastard is the best suggestion - in teh tone of your other questions - or US 'son of a bitch' if you're aiming at that side of the pond
1 hr
  -> tak Christine
agree  Suzanne Blangsted (X): Bastard, and if using the other suggestions, then cad is a man, cunt is a woman.
9 hrs
  -> thanks Blangsted, In Australia, cunt can actually also be a man; may have been used about gay men at some stage and then developed from there, who knows?
