I hear them say the word like every few sentences on VOD's. It sort of sounds like assimilator but it's clearly not, its in every matchup. And it's a lot. Anybody know what it translates to? Sorry i don't have a correct spelling for it :p but it sounds like simidar or simida or something like that. just driving me nuts and i wanna know what it is.

It's kinda like the Japanese 'desu'.

Not sure if it can also be called a copula.

What does it mean "meh"? sounds like it and they often reapeat it when the other person speaks, so i think its kind of "yeah"..?

yup. the romanticized translation of the korean "yes" is "neh," so when someone makes an insightful commentary, another person says neh

Another thing they say alot is something like "curacho" atleast that's what it sounds like to me o_O would very much like to know what that means :>

Also while on this topic, what is "Zerg" in korean? You hear "terrani" and "protussu" but I've never heard something similar to zerg.. :o

Might be stupid questions but.. would be fun to know ^^

Edit: After listening abit closer now my wild guess for Zerg would be "shogo" or something like that.. shogoling gave it away! ^^
men du... Tagga!

'curacho' = that's right. I think they just say zerg, but I've never really thought about it :6
