What is this saying about? Why is "bloody dog" or more precisely dog's blood considered to be a curse word?

goddamit - you curse the god. What is up with dog’s blood? Do you get my drift here?

Cholera (cholera) was a curse similat to the Middle English pox on you. Choroba (illness) was regarded as a milder curse, just as heck and gosh in English are milder than hell and God, and son of a gun is milder thna S.O.B.

Psia krew was assumed to be a swear word nto used in polite society (what ever happened to polite society?) although it cannot be directly translated into other languages. I have also heard from older Poles psia jucha which means the same.

"krev ull letta" means "krew zalewa" in my opinion

"krew zalewa" I suppose the explanation Mr. Polonius provided would still apply in this case.
