Slang
 
Hi everybody!
 
What kind of word(s) would a kid use for nerd/geek? What slang word would he/she use in this sentence "What a nerd!" if he/she wanted to bully someone? This is for a video that my kids produced and now they have to find the English equivalent for the Portuguese one used in the video, I mean, for the subtitles.
Thanks in advance!
Cristina

Hi Cristina!
Could it be "dude"?
Have a look at this:
Hope this is useful.

I think �What a nerd! � could be said in a bullying tone of voice.
 
What a dork! 
What a dweeb!
