SNAFU is an acronym that is widely used to stand for the sarcastic expression Situation normal: all fucked up. It is a well-known example of military acronym slang. It is sometimes bowdlerized to "all fouled up" or similar. It means that the situation is bad, but that this is a normal state of affairs. The acronym is believed to have originated in the United States Marine Corps during World War II.

  • SNAFU ist ein aus der amerikanischen Soldatensprache entlehntes Akronym für Situation Normal, All Fucked Up bzw. Situation normal, all fouled up (deutsch etwa: „Lage normal, alles im Arsch“). Sinngemäß kommt dies der Redensart „Operation geglückt, Patient tot“ gleich. Zu unterscheiden ist der so beschriebene Zustand SNAFU und das zu diesem Zustand führende SNAFU-Prinzip. (de)
  • SNAFU est un acronyme anglais signifiant communément Situation Normal: All Fucked Up, soit en français « Situation normale : c’est le bordel ». Acronyme issu du jargon militaire américain, SNAFU est utilisé pour exprimer que la situation est mauvaise, mais qu’elle l’a toujours été et qu’il n’y a donc pas matière à s’en inquiéter ou à s'en étonner. C'est une manière soit de plaisanter, soit d'exprimer sa frustration. Dans des situations où fucked est peu approprié, le terme est généralement remplacé par fouled. (fr)
  • SNAFU è un'espressione gergale della lingua inglese, per indicare che qualcosa è andato male, come al solito. È l'acronimo della frase Situation Normal, All Fucked Up; a volte è usato il termine fouled al posto di fucked per rendere meno volgare l'espressione. La frase si può tradurre in italiano con operazione riuscita, il paziente è morto (lett. situazione normale, tutto è fottuto). (it)
  • SNAFU is een Engels acroniem voor Situation Normal: All Fucked Up ('situatie normaal: alles verkloot'), soms verzacht tot Situation Normal: All Fouled Up ('situatie normaal: alles verprutst'). Het letterwoord wordt gebruikt in omstandigheden waar er niet gevloekt mag worden. Men denkt dat het ontstaan is in het Amerikaanse leger ten tijde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog. In opdracht van het Amerikaanse leger werden cartoons geproduceerd waarin de hoofdpersoon, Private Snafu (soldaat Snafu) blunderde in gevechts- en bivaksituaties. De filmpjes waren bedoeld om de manschappen op een luchtige manier te wijzen op dingen die in de uitoefening van taken makkelijk mis konden gaan of vergeten worden. (nl)

  • SNAFU é um acrónimo que é amplamente utilizado para a expressão sarcástica Situação Normal: Tudo Lixado (em inglês: Situation Normal: All Fucked Up). É um exemplo clássico de gíria militar. No entanto, a sigla militar original representava "Status Nominal: All Fucked Up". Às vezes é atenuada para "tudo errado" ou semelhante. Isto significa que a situação está ruim, mas que este é o estado normal das coisas. Acredita-se que a origem da sigla venha dos Fuzileiros navais dos Estados Unidos durante a II Guerra Mundial. (pt)

The acronym is believed to have originated in the United States Marine Corps during World War II. In modern usage, SNAFU is sometimes used as an interjection. SNAFU also sometimes refers to a bad situation, mistake, or cause of trouble. It is more commonly used in modern vernacular to describe running into an error or problem that is large and unexpected. For example, in 2005, The New York Times published an article titled "Hospital Staff Cutback Blamed for Test Result Snafu". (en)
