Native English speaker here who celebrates Norwegian heritage with my dad. I myself am not Norwegian or a native speaker of it, but since I'm already a native English speaker, we have sjokk (shock) I guess???

In French canadian we like to use "fuck" like, "c'est fucké ca!" Or that's fucked(up).

In German, they use the adjective “abgefuckt” in similar cases; that’s an English swearword with some German prefixes underlining the complete and destructive nature of the state of affairs.
