нахрюк
Russian
Etymology
Blend of набе́г (nabég, “incursion, raid”) + хрюк (xrjuk, “oinking”), or made of на- (na-) + хрюк (xrjuk). Russian jokes often stereotype Ukrainians as eating salo (salted pig fat); after the War in Donbas and the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, in Russian nationalist discourse, this portrayal progressed to a dehumanizing association of enemy Ukrainian soldiers or Ukrainians in general with pigs (as opposed to merely pig-eaters).
