Romanian profanity (înjurătură) refers to a set of words considered blasphemous or inflammatory in the Romanian language.

The Romanian language is considered to have a huge set of inflammatory terms and phrases. Profanities rarely differ from region to region in Romania, but there are differences when taking into account languages related to Romanian, such as the Aromanian and Megleno-Romanian languages. poponar, curist and găozar all are roughly the equivalent of "faggot". Although their literal meaning was initially associated with male homosexuals, they are generally used as depreciating words towards any male, no matter their sexual orientation. "Poponar" literally is close to "bum user", "curist" means "butt user" ("cur" means "butt" in Romanian slang), "găozar" means "ass hole user" ("găoaza"or "gaura curului" mean both "ass hole"). A word formed in a similar manner is pizdar, which is a vulgar equivalent to "womanizer" or "skirt-chaser": someone who is obsessed with women. Bulangiu, which has quite a complex and contradictory formation ("bulan" is the slang for "luck" and also for "leg"), it generally has the meaning of "ass" ("nu fii bulangiu" = "don't be an ass") and is used against a man who is not cooperative, backstabber, ungrateful. It also may be used as an equivalent of "faggot", in Rroma slang. The female version of "bulangiu" may be "bulangioaica" or "bulangie".

A puţoi is the possessor of a puţă (see below). It is a rough equivalent to "punk"or "little prick", that is, an immature boy that tries to act "tough".

Nenorocit, originally an old popular phrase, that literally translates as "unlucky", is now used in a powerfully pejorative sense, similarly to "motherfucker" in English. It is used mostly in the vocative form "nenorocitule".

Lăbar and labagiu or onanist mean "jerk-off" or "jerk". The expression "a-ti trage o laba" means "to jerk off". Although they are literally connected to masturbation, in the spoken language they have the same meaning as "jerk", "ass hole", "ass" when referred to a male individual.

Peşte, which literally means fish, colloquially refers to a pimp. The women who work for a peşte are: curvă, târfă, traseistă, zdreanta, boarfa (borfet), pitipoanca, tomberon (literally garbage can, into which a man unloads), prostituata, stoarfa, muistă and many others. Muistă refers to a prostitute who specializes in fellatio, or to a woman with an annoying attitude. There is a male equivalent, muist that means "cocksucker". Târfă also means "bitch" in some contexts.
