does your country have a word equivalent to "Murica"

[psijac]

When some one say "Merica" something incredibly stupid just happened or is about to happen. The implication is that these events could not occur outside of the culture, freedoms, and privilege that the United States of America enjoys.

Does your have a single word or phrase which is parallel to this? if so please share.

We don't, but we do have a parodic dialect version of the name of the country. "Sverrrröjäääää!"

'Straya! Brings to mind the Australian man, wife beater blue singlet and a pair of stubby shorts with a durry in one hand and a load of goon in his belly.

Not many countries have the combination of boastful chest-beating "Greatest country in the world!" combined with the issues the middle class faces on top of relatively poor education performance/standards in the United States.

If I remember correctly the term spawned from the "Team America" movie's theme song "America, Fuck Yeah!"

I don't think Germany has something exactly like that, but one thing that came to mind is "Schland". It's a thing that was spawned out of the silly excitement that people get for football over here. "Schland" comes from "Deutschland", of course, and people shout it, usually pulled to some amount of length i.e. "Schlaaaaand", when the football is happening.

Well there's a particular stereotype of guys called "Marcel". They wear sleeveless undershirts, drink, smoke, are uneducated etc...

That's just one stereotype type and it's the equivalent of any other country bumpkin stereotype. I guess there's an equivalent of the ultra-nationalistic moron, but I can't think up of a single word or phrase to encapsulate that.

EDIT: I guess there's also 'plouc' if you want to refer to farmers.

 

[sanquin]

We have one word that, when used in the right tone and context, means something similar. "Boer", or if directly translated, "Farmer". You're basically saying the person has a very crude/hill billy-like mentality.

Stop talking about Vancouver's hockey team, they don't read the forums.

I'm British so summing up the stereotype of the culture I live in with just one word would be counter intuitive. It would have to be something over the top, pointless and somehow buttering a crumpet.

I know its not the same thing, but I do have a soft spot for Brits being called limeys. (unless the person using it doesn't know the origin of it)

It's basically like shouting "SCOTLAND!" normally but with barely any mouth movement so it's not pronounced properly and you don't hear the "t" but you get the gist of it.

...

SCOH-LUND!

The closest thing I can think of is rugby fans proudly shouting the opening line of the Welsh national anthem, "MAE HEN WLAD FY NHADAU YN annwyl.. i... mi...", which is followed by awkward mumbling until... "GWLAD! GWLAD! PLEIDIOL WYF I'M GWLAD!"

Basically, you know that "Numa Numa" song that was popular a while back? You know how most people can only kinda phonetically reproduce "NUMA NUMA EY" and a handful of other phrases? That's how our national anthem is treated. Yet they'll still treat Wales like this badass underdog against the English menace...

...while err...

...speaking English...

 

[StriderShinryu]

I'm not aware of any particular word for Canada though there are definitely a bunch of both true and not so true well known Canadian stereotypes.

I've always heard that, without exception as being said with '****' at the end: 'Straya, ****!' and the like.

In terms of less stupid stuff, as America styles itself as the greatest country in the world, Australians (usually politicians) sometimes refer to us as 'The Lucky Country'.

Aye, was going to say that. You can say it with the same ironic tone as "'Merica!" or totally straight too.

Here in Brazil, peole say "HUE".Is kind of a weird laugh that people start using when talking about Brazilians in online gaming (talking bad stuff I might add), and then it kind of became a simbol on itself.

 

[Zhukov]

Closest I can think of is Australians putting on a super exaggerated aussie accent when talking about dumb stuff going down here.

"Coz oihm faahkin Ohsstraaaleanne, maaayte."

I suppose "Straya" kind of works too, although I've personally never heard it used like that.

 

[MrFalconfly]

Cant come up with anything.

But then again, Denmark only has 5.5 million citizens.

Cue a lot of swedes saying that we speak like our mouth's are filled with potatoes (well, at least we can hold our liquor).
