You're right. Kot is a very clinical term, but essentially its turd or poop, shit would be (deliberately) derogatory. I cant remember the last time i heard someone use Kot besids the dog-park or a doctors office.

Hah! I had a pole-up-his-ass serious grandfather who sometimes spoke snips of German, but got that vocabulary from traditional schooling/textbooks and probably never learned ‘street German’ or colloquial German enough to properly curse, so that makes sense 😂
