In Polonia, where many things are slavishly translated from the English, one can hear at times brudny jêzyk, but in real Polish shouldn't it be something like plugawy jêzyk? Any other way to expressing this idea? Wulgarny, ordynarny, nieprzyzwoity, obsceniczny....

I think the most accurate term is "nieprzyzwoity jêzyk",but others are good too.I would only be careful with "plugawy jêzyk"-plugawy is a really strong word.
