žrát
What does “žrát” mean in English?
It means to eat greedily or intensely, often used for animals but can refer to people in a coarse way. It can also imply a strong passion or love for something.
Literally “devour”
It's similar to saying someone 'devours' food in English, often used in a more humorous or exaggerated context. It's not as harsh as many English swear words, so it's relatively mild.

About this data
Swear Atlas is a source-attested, AI-curated reference — not a native-speaker-certified dictionary. Meanings and the 1–5 Burn Rating are approximate editorial assessments that vary with context, region, tone and speaker. Inclusion of a word does not constitute endorsement of its use.
The literal gloss is a short editorial translation to show word-for-word sense, not an etymological claim.
“Sounds like” is an English-friendly approximation of how the word sounds, not an authoritative pronunciation. Where shown, the romanisation is a conventional Latin-script transliteration of the original spelling.
