These are for profanities. I don't know of a page that describes Esperanto slang very well. Most people don't speak Esperanto in a very slangy way, compared to how national languages are spoken.

The most slangy way of speaking apart from using profanities etc is to be lazy with the endings etc, but that's more pidgin-speak than slang pronunciation. The real emphasis in Esperanto is clear intercultural communication thus why not many people other than a few of us really bother with experimenting with colloquial variants of the language lango.gif

Tabuaj vortoj en Esperanto is also a great source.

I once proposed tito as a slangy alternative to mamo, but it hasn't found any use yet.

Maybe because it sounds a bit too close to this: Viaj titoloj estas tre belaj, Sinjorino.

No. That's because I haven't advertised it enough! It would however be a sufficiently international word - English tit, German Titte, Spanish teta, Italian tetta ...

(Since the accent is titólo, you can hardly confuse that with títo.)

I'm also aware of this page: http://mindprod.com/esperanto/dirty.html

Some of the phrases seem a bit on the silly side though rideto.gif

Perhaps that's your slang, but that's not reflective of most slang I have seen at Esperanto events!
