mierda

Spanish curse word

Mierda is Spanish for shit, used as an expletive expressing frustration, disgust, or dismay: ¡Mierda! I forgot my wallet.

In English contexts, it functions like any profanity—often chosen for its foreignness, which can soften or sharpen the impact depending on the audience.

Like its English equivalent, mierda can describe something worthless or terrible: This movie is mierda.
