Could be. It's also important to remember that the n-word hysteria in the US doesnt really exist in other countries.
My kosovian friend listens to rap and would just throw that shit around for fun when i lived in Europe.

When I first came to the US from Scandinavia in the 1980’s as a teenager, I legitimately thought the hard R version was how Americans described Black people. Like as in it was an accepted normal word. I found out quickly it was not.

You have to remember that there was never a racial civil rights movement in Europe like there was in the USA. Also, simply the fact that back then virtually every one was white, and there were very few brown people living there.

My Russian friend says that it’s normal over there to refer to black people with the hard er, dunno if that’s true but damn.

u/Short-Ad1032 16d ago

The Russian word for a black person is “negr” (pronounced kinda lile “nay-grr”) and basically, if you came up to a clueless babushka/grandma and showed her the Russian word and the English hard-r slur, she’d language-wise see no difference or just attribute it to slightly different pronunciations between the languages.

Further, if you came up to Russian kids who didn’t have much exposure to western sociopolitics (extremely possible) but they listened to a lot of American rap without understanding 99%, they’d recognize the hard-r word, hear black rappers use it so much that it does not seem to be a perjorative (rap is extremely popular in eastern europe because it’s western and “gangster”), so it’s basically a cognate for them and they start using it because it’s cool to say a word with foreign pronunciation (like Americans cheekily saying the British “shhedule” instead of schedule) without understanding the implications.

But the actually educated Russian will probably know and understand that the western, hard-r pronunciation is a slur.

“Nword hysteria” i love when people pretend that calling anyone a racial slur ro their face would warrent no reaction from any other ethnicity

He very well could be Afro-Mexican. Lots of people of that heritage in the south west coast of Mexico

u/OdinsOneGoodEye 17d ago edited 17d ago

That’s just crazy- in Spanish it would be negro or negrito, which in Mexico neither name is considered derogatory. This is probably a call sign he received from an American trainer.
