Pronunciation: mu̇d-ˌäk
A Russian swear word meaning an asshole, but never a smart asshole. Someone so arrogant that he doesn't even understand what a dickhead he is.
What makes this word unique - it is strictly masculine, which is not typical for the Russian profanity. You can even call a man pizda (cunt); but you never could say "she's a mudak". Neither you can form the feminine gender of the noun, like for the similar word durak (fool) - dura (feminine for durak). No way. So it's always a "dumb prick" but never a "dumb cunt".
Of course, "mudak" is an offensive word, but not as offensive as a pidar (faggot) or even a kozel (goat). Your ass would not necessarily get kicked for the use of it (it's still possible though). Some people even call themselves mudaks with some degree of vanity; e.g. the most renowned blogger of the Russian Web is pretty comfortable with a nickname Tupoi Mudak (a kind of redundancy here, i.e. the dumbest dumb jerk).
