Kash:  feliyo 'fool, idiot'.  There are worse things, of an personal,
inter-species sexual nature, that need not be repeated here.  There was a
thread on this subject back in March; see the archive ("Slang, idioms...").

Also:  ta mende (ha)pila(-pila) '(you) have not thought/considered'.  In
LeGuin's "The word for world is forest" one of the Hainish says to an
Earthman "you have not thought this through", considered a supreme
criticism, and perhaps something to keep in mind at the present time.
