Funny how "cacator" sounds like the Portuguese word "cagador". I thought the verb "cagar" was recent, turns out we've been saying it for thousands of years.

  These romance languages are called thus because of Rome: they are variations of Latin. Look up the etymology of most words in Spanish or French and you’ll find the Latin origins. Even the naughty bits. Spanish pedo ← Latin pedere.

    Yeah, I know. It's just that specifically "cagar" sounds so informal and slang-like, those words tend to vary a lot through generations.

      In French we have an equivalent verb, "caguer", but it's not used that much, "chier" is more common in this register and is the one used in most expressions.

  "Cacogen" was Latin for people who spoke a foreign language.
