tabernac

Tabernac is one of the worst curse words you can use in French Canada. French Canada has a strong tradition of Roman Catholicism and this sacriligious word takes the word "tabernacle" in vain.

"tabernac' de fou", "c't'une tabernac d'affaire, là"

Tabernac

it's the Canadian French version of goddamn it. Its taken just as seriously by bible beaters there too.

Canadian Friend: Tabernac! I just stubbed my toe on a potato!
American Friend: Why are you beating on my potato with your goddamn toe!
