It's even worse in French: I read it in the early 2000s in high school and the title was "10 petits n*gres". It seems they only changed it in 2020 😬

In Hungarian, it's still "Tíz kicsi néger", though "néger" does not carry the same connotation in the language, if anything, it's archaic.

You can be a mainstream politician and say it on live TV, and people will at most laugh at the old person.

Our version of the n-word is spelled the same.
