| Mar 31, 2015 at 6:55 | comment | added | UVV | Холера used often? Really? | |
| Mar 31, 2015 at 6:36 | comment | added | Rilakkuma | It is. Words like "Холера" and "Кретин" are somewhat often used as curses although they are names for diseases or conditions. | |
| Mar 31, 2015 at 6:33 | comment | added | Vilmar | Never in my life have I heard this curse in oral speech. Using diseases as curse words is not that common in modern Russian at all. | |
