English term or phrase: damn
Ron Johnson’s daughter had congenital heart disease, and she had to undergo two surgeries. My wife and I were in his chambers, and he told us the story. He said: 'Listen, these doctors had to make edge decisions.' They had to make decisions to save his daughter’s life. They didn’t wait for randomized trials. They didn’t wait for a guidelines. They didn’t wait for the CDC or the FDA to tell them what to do. They made some damn decisions as surgeons and they saved her life.

Czy słówko to po prostu wyraża jego złość czy ma jakieś inne nieznane mi znaczenie? Serdecznie dziękuję za odpowiedź :)

  -> Rozważałam ale cholera wydaje się mocniejsze dla polskiego ucha niż damn dla angielskiego…
agree  legato: Nie bałabym się "cholery". To jest wyraźne przekleństwo i "diabelnie" lub "cholernie" może być użyte, IMO. Nasz ksiądz (!) raz użył "damn" i nie mam wątpliwości, że była to "cholera".
