Kriff

Kriff was a vulgar expletive. Kriffing was a derogatory modifier based on the word kriff.

Kas'im used this expletive when he tried to argue with Qordis for restricting his student's actions inside the Korriban Academy and Republic soldiers frequently used this expletive when talking about the war on Ruusan against the Brotherhood of Darkness. Johun Othone used the word kriffing when asking Supreme Chancellor Tarsus Valorum to hire a security team, after having to fight off several armed kidnappers.

Moff Disra referred to Carib Devist as a "kriffing clone" after realizing Devist had tricked Imperial Intelligence into sending him the then-secret location of Bastion.

Luke Skywalker also used this word to refer to slicers when R2-D2 refused to let him see the contents of a protected memory area, and had gone so far as to damage himself. Luke had forgotten that his young son Ben Skywalker was present, and when Ben asked Luke what kriffing meant, Luke remarked that Ben's mother would not be pleased that Ben overheard Luke using that word. Captain Lon Shevu of the Galactic Alliance Guard used the word often when on raids, as well as Han Solo.
