HexagonKeySet: Not going to argue with that ...

I would challenge Rizla and his expert though ... the size of a person's vocabulary is usually demonstrated by their language.

I'd respectfully suggest that other studies exist to show the over reliance on a few words is unintelligent ... and that an over reliance upon words that express emotions in a negative manner probably hurt the speaker as much as they are intended to shock or offend their audience!

To those who only have a hammer ... everything looks like a nail !


Not my theory but did make me think, English is a very expressive language, swearing is just another way to express a feeling or emotion.
Those that don't swear maybe don't have the vocabulary of swearwords, therefore, the premise given by the Professor could well have some justification.

I swear, it is a very useful form of expression and is usually understood internationally.

This morning I shouted "Dickhead" to a man who cycled across the road without realising I was almost upon him, I doubt he spoke much English, but he certainly understood my comment as he apologisedgrin

One2note: Such an unladylike & cheap way of expressing yourself!

Does your language lack enough pronouns, that you have to stoop so low as to use bad language ffs.


If I am ticked off enough I will use foul language. It just comes out. I volunteer in a place where it is not good to swear but I was making popcorn and the oil splattered in very tiny droplets on my face and I yelled a bad word. I was pretty embarrassed but not one person heard me. I asked! I am trying to curb my potty mouth because I volunteer there a lot so I really don't want to do that again. sigh

I dont mind women swearing a bit here and there, but not using the c-word all the time, and not spitting on the footpath.

Deedee123x: Who are the low life's KremaP








I know you don't like me Dee and I'm fine with this, it's impossible to like everyone, right...
I still think that you can stop the nonsense that's overtaken the forums...
You seem a good woman but the determination you put into this fight is slightly worrying...
Be the better one and step back...

I also get the feeling u don't like me.
U put effort into undermining alot of what I say
But that is also fine.

What I don't get is how just because certain members are here longer than me they get a free pass.
They obviously have their loyal fans who won't dare go against them.

It's funny how easy plp sit back n let two men bully one woman...but that's ok.
It's the nature of the forums..and friends will always back friends even if they r doing wrong.
