I prefer the translation of Mourinho’s insult that turns it into “son of a whore.” And yes, that’s mostly because I say it all the time (albeit in English) — you can’t deny how it just rolls off the tongue.

You know, Martha, I was wondering about that. I would have assumed that “puta” was the Portuguese equivalent of the French “putain,” or whore.
Yes, I did actually spend time thinking about whether or not the article had provided the correct translation. And yes, this is one of those days when I’m thinking I need to get out more.
