Usage notes

Due to its literal meaning, this expression is generally used only by men, though some women use it. An analogous phrase used by both men and women is "ce naiba", or "ce dracu", which has a literal meaning close to "what the devil", and can also be used as an equivalent to "what the ****", thus being somewhat less vulgar "ce pula mea".

"Pula mea" can follow almost any question word with the same meaning. For example, "cum pula mea" would mean "how the ****", "de ce pula mea" would mean "why the ****", etc.
