Kinoath, yeah!: Kinoath - because it sounds valid for everyday conversation, seemingly with a simple etymology - the swearing of an oath to someone considered kin - but it's actually a product of a relaxed diction (eg. Australian/Strine).
Nuh: Mother (as a swear, including its longer version) - because it makes very little sense as an insult, especially in this period of the "yummy mummy" and her associated titles (eg. MILTTTD - Mother I'd Like To Take To Dinner...to use a gentle acronym).
Cheers,
Marc
