Definition
An extremely vulgar and offensive curse phrase directed at someone and their entire family.
How it's used
This string of profanity represents the extreme end of Cantonese vulgarity, combining multiple sexual and anatomical slurs into a single aggressive outburst. It is not a standard phrase but rather a concatenation of individual expletives used to express intense rage or contempt. Using this in any social setting will be perceived as a severe personal attack and will likely lead to immediate physical confrontation or social ostracization.

Common mistake
Learners often mistake these terms for casual slang, but they are highly offensive and carry significant social weight. They are not interchangeable with mild expletives and should be avoided entirely to prevent serious misunderstandings or conflict.
