Why would you ever do this? Why would you even entertain the idea of translating "Neko ga suki" as "Cat beloved" rather than 'I like cats" or "I like the cat"?

Because literal translations don't work and never will unless you enjoy reading a Google Translate filled mess.

Also, Japan doesn't have swear words in the same strength as the west does.

I dunno, but it does have a translation.

I didn't say they didn't have them. But Fuck doesn't really have a word in Japanese, at least not one that has the same power.

Usually, it's just "FUCK !!!"
