It makes it so you have to learn "foutu" as "foutu", rather than "ruined/messed up"
I think that's sort of frustrating though..

For instance, I still have no idea what "youpidou" exactly means.

Another example is that, while I'm more fluent in English, there will be a certain term I'd like to use, but I'll only know how to express it in Korean. Now that there, is a very unusual situation for me.
