There's a neat thing where, in some cultures, most curses/the worst curses are about religion; in others, they're about sex; and in others, they're about filth/bodily functions. I have no idea which medieval Ireland was, but that might be worth researching.

Lyra, I have been very carefully trying to stay away from the "You know, I bet Italian/whatever was different in 1498" thought. I'm getting obsessive enough about the languages.
It was just supposed to be a simple little "let's dress up the cute guys in nifty clothes and see what happens" fic.
