Polish term

masakra

Polish to English Other Slang
Często mam ten problem: czasem piszę "what a nightmare" lub "what a mess", ale może macie inne propozycje. Kilka przykładów:
Widziałem ceny domów w Londynie masakra
Ale mi głupoty do głowy przychodzą masakra
Masakra ostatnio pisaliśmy 6 godzin
Nie jest aż tak kolorowo :-P ale dzisiaj mam taka ochote że masakra

I agree with bistefano: crap is very expressive and applies to all such situations.
Peer comment(s):
