Ironically unfortunate, wouldve thought this video could get the pass considering its educational
@@L0rdOfThePiesapparently not! 😂
My old boss, a Frenchman, told me that in France telling someone that their mother makes pancakes is an insult and tends to lead to a fight 😂
Hahaha I wonder what the origins of that insult is…?
I guess they prefer French Toast
@@dailymindtrap Maybe it's implying she isn't good at making crepes?
Maybe it’s implying she’s poor? Pancakes are really cheap and pretty tasty
my fiancé is french, lived here all his life and has never heard that 😭
"There are no bad words, only bad times to use them."
-My Dad on the subject of profanity
Swearing is an absolutely fascinating subject to me, especially as a writer. There's so much you can express with a single "Fuck!" that no amount of purple prose can ever come close to capturing.
I agree! We do all these things to get around “bad words”, but it undermines the whole point of them which is that they aren’t recognised as “language” to our brains. They’re expressions that are deeply embedded in our emotion and memory centres. That’s why they’re so powerful.
A wise man, your Dad.
I'd teach my children all the swear words and say "with great power comes great responsibility"
the theory that swearing is a sign of low vocabulary was always funny to me because i always had a huuuge vocabulary as a kid, but became drawn more towards swearing because of the versatility/shorthanding that it was good for🤣
Yeah swear words are just more tools for a creative mind!
It’s most fun to use large “10-dollar words” and weave them in with the nastiest sentence you can use.
A quick example I just came up with is calling someone a “pathological cumfart”
👍 Stephen fry has a brilliant example of this…
ruclips.net/video/FvbG92hjO3A/видео.html
"Cartman you cant say fuck in class"......."Why the fuck not, its only a word....fuck fuckity fuck fuck fuck"........
😂
Vulgar. Like something that smells bad. Childish.
I know a guy whose dad is paralyzed from a neck injury and has a lot of trouble speaking, but he has no trouble swearing but I don't think he ever had trouble swearing in the first place.
Yeah amazing! Swearing really isn’t “language” to our brains.
I think it's pointless to censor words. Like one of Carlin's most famous bits, we'll just replace them with different words that have the same meaning. Then those new words will become offensive and banned too, and we restart the cycle.
I like in-depth videos like this, well done.
Yeah it’s the pendulum swing right?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
That's called the Euphemism Treadmill
lol great
Thats the euphemism treadmill at work
Thats the euphemism treadmill at work
I was really anti swearing when I was young, then I got roped into it in college because of a bad friend group, now I just swear when it’s fu$;?$&ng appropriate
i speak a language that is spoken by >1 million people. it's called Dhivehi (only spoken in Maldives and Minicoy Island) and we have such a rich swear word vocabulary haha
Ah I’m so intrigued! Do you have a favourite swear word you can share with the class? :D
@@dailymindtrap no one uses this anymore but there is a word that goes like "haradabaradabangulhi", which means bastard of a bastard of a bastard lol
and yes of course i have taught my foreign friends a lot of swear words from my language haha
lol, excellent.
Ancestral denigration.
There’s an insult in Mandarin which translates to “F- your ancestors to the eighteenth generation".
15:06 The way the TV Guardian works is actually really neat. Basically, it looks through the data that carries the subtitles, and then changes how it censors the profanity based on the context it's used in. Technology Connections did a video on it that I'd highly reccommend.
Yeah I saw that! Interesting little device.
I wanted to go further into the role that technology plays in filtering “bad words” but it’s a topic for another day perhaps. Context is the hardest part.
Thanks for your comment. :)
queef
also, unrelated to that, you can thank south park for making it ok to say shit on video. i remember the episode where they pushed the envelope and actually changed the standard. shit wasn't allowed at all on regular tv, and then they were allowed to say it like 3 times per episode, and then they pushed and pushed until it was normalized.
Yeah I had a clip from that episode in there (“It hits the fan”) So good. Love South Park. 💕
Great work! Very impressive. It's so rare to find a video that is so well researched, jam packed with not just information but also historical and social context, yet so breezy in writing style and presentation, and light in tone. Tremendously fun, yet also substantial. Beautifully done!
This is such a lovely comment! I’m really trying to hit those marks.
I’m so glad you enjoyed my video. :)
@@dailymindtrap it's so rare that anyone ever does hit those marks.
Your comments on how overuse can diminish the power of certain taboo words rang true, and reminded me of something I'd written in my journal long, long ago (1994) about an ill-fated hike on which I'd been bitten by a dog, which the owner had regarded as an inconvenience for which she couldn't be bothered. As usual, I played the "what I should have said" game in my head on my back to the trailhead...
"... The blood was running down my arm by now, but I was becoming increasingly furious, which no doubt helped me double-time it back to the car. I spent the journey telling her off eloquently and frequently, each time perfecting the timing and delivery, careful to use the word "fuck" once, and only once, and careful to place it where it would have maximum effect, the way Buddy Rich would lay off the cymbals until the climax of one of his volcanic solos. I don't remember much else about the return trip other than concern for the hour, and whether or not I'd be able to make it to the clinic before they closed..."
Enjoyed the video immensely, esp. part 1.
Ah I know that kind of rumination where if you could only just go back in time and deliver that perfect “fuck you”…
I hope your arm was okay.
@@dailymindtrap Thanks for taking note. Yes, the dog was rabies free, the arm was fine and still is, apart from a few twinges of arthritis. I've since had a few trailside encounters with moose and bear, but they've been much better mannered than that surly canine - a golden retriever, of all things. I thought they were supposed to be the nice ones.
this video is so good i am surprised that it doesn’t have more attention
Thank you, glad you liked it. :)
Thank you so much for making this, I’m a teacher and I’m doing teacher training right now and the extremely old teacher running the teacher training made some comments about swearing being associated with a weak mind and I’m sitting here thinking, “I probably swear more than any other teacher in this group, but I know more about the content that we’re going to be teaching than any other teacher in this group, I don’t think that correlates with the statement you are making” ❤ I found this video very helpful and definitely gives me some food for thought about when and how I use swearing with students, programming can be a really painful topic to try to learn, especially if you find it immensely frustrating like some students do, strategically, internally, swearing, and using swearing under your breath and that kind of stuff is actually something that can be super helpful for students when they’re trying to get over the frustration of trying to learn to program ❤
Yeah I can see how swearing has a place in an education context; emotional response, building rapport etc. I really don’t believe that swearing is a sign of a lack of education or a “weak mind”. It just unfortunately became associated with working class men - but the research shows a different story now. Im glad you found my video informative. I always enjoy comments from teachers!
you are CRIMINALLY underrated
You are too kind 🤍
Thats what i just came to say
One time, at work, I casually confessed to my boss that I don't like to curse or use swear words like everyone else in the office did in private. He told me I was full of s**t.
Even to this day, though I am capable and have shouted obscenities in nonsensical strings, something inside says that I really don't like doing it.
Some research I came across while I was making this video talked about how the power of swear words is somewhat imprinted in our brains (emotion and memory centres) when we’re children. It’s the reactions of the adults around us that hear us use a “bad word” for the first time, often innocently, that gives those words meaning. Sometimes adults react harshly, angrily etc when children swear and this unfortunately makes those words more powerful. And we don’t forget that, even as adults.
This was incredible, I'm so glad the algorithm brought me here!! I subscribed so fast, I hope your channel grows (because hell, you SO deserve it!!)
Ah thank you so much! Glad you liked it.
yo this was really interesting! I would never have imagined Australia of all places to censor/legislate against swear words.
Yeah, our culture is generally casual but we still come from Britain. Glad you liked the vid!
@@dailymindtrapAustralia just like the UK is showing signs of becoming a far left fascist state. Censorship is slowly becoming the norm. They introduce new laws and things to censor very slowly.
@@tdoran616do you mean far right? far left fascism is an oxymoron lol
There was a man who was a carpenter who said nothing but “swear” words who accidentally cut off one of his fingers. His mouth opened but nothing came out. He couldn’t say anything “strong”. He used them all for normal times.
I'm bringing bedswerver back, that's some low key heat right there.
Let’s all do this
I like how all the diseases you named are actually also used as swear words in the Netherlands. Tyfus is probably even more common than kanker, because there are prudes opposed to using kanker as a swear words, ut they’re okay with tyfus. Cholera is rarely used but you will hear it from time to time.
Minced Oath... never knew there was a proper term for it. my best example is "krill your shelf"
When I was little I thought “the S word” was “stupid” (or maybe the phrase “shut up?”) and when my neighbor friend said the offensive word I went to my mom and told her that “he said the S word” 😭
I still don’t like to use swears around my mom or around children and i naturally self-censor in those contexts. But I have friends who have never had a problem saying whatever the hell they want around their parents, lol
I think a big reason for this is that my mom didn’t swear around me and discouraged me from using those words, so I just didn’t use them around her.
My friends parents, on the other hand, were much more … open with the language they used around their kids lol
Yeah true. We do learn the most from our parents in those early years.
You've just gained a new fan here!!!
yay! welcome to the party
You can say anything. But not to anyone.
I'm dropping everything to watch this right now.i really enjoy your videos that go over aspects of our language.
Ah thank you! Yeah this one was enjoyable to make, glad you liked it. :)
best video ive seen this week glad it was in my recommended ❤
Wow, thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. :)
I dont swear in public nor anywlhere where my voice may carry and be heard by people.
I swear daily here _at home at my Tablet_ when it fails to work correctly.
I _might_ swear if telling a joke which includes swearing, but rarely. I _have_ sworn in comments where I've found the words used applicable to rhe "conversation" ...but not as often as some might assume.
I don't care for censorship of words, phrases, or 'presumed' swearing.
I don't like nor use these words:
"Profanity"
"Obscenity"
"Cussing" ...
I prefer this word:
Swearing...
I would rather that society as a whole, but also individually, could, would curtail their propensity for violence.
A person against another person, or a person against an animal, or those to whom the despicable acts of setting one (any) animal _against another animal_ is also abhorrent to me.
Actions _do_ "speak louder than words" and gestures.
If we are to continue to view ourselves as considerate humans, we must act considerately.
The sound of letters being put together to create, or to continue the previous creation of words deemed by those who feel "they have a right and a moral duty" to tell us how to speak, what to say or do, should, in my considered opinion, concentrate their serious efforts upon the last of those.
To do.
There are of course laws which restrict and / or suggest what not to do, and some are heavily enforced, but still Man's inhumanity to Man (& I am _not_ being sexist by using those terms) continues. Still we have wars, conflicts, disagreements, injuries forced upon some by others, and too many unnecessary deaths ensue from the inhumanity.
I've said my bit.
Swearing per se is inoffensive compared to the greater damage caused by horrendous actions from one another, upon another - if that makes sense...
🇬🇧♥️🙂🖖
Yes I particularly agree with your last point. It reminds me of an interview with Stephen Fry where he’s asking how we can throw around the word “torture” so casually, but the word “fuck” (a word symbolic of ‘giving life’) is interpreted as offensive as it is.
8:18 South Carolina is a state in the southern U.S. It is likely referring to the dialect of english spoken there.
Fantastic. Thanks for clarifying! :)
Your video trapped my mind's thirst. 🤭
On the video's subject
I can't remember which country a coworker of mine was from, I think it was Estonia, Latvia or Lithuania. She claimed that her native language didn't have any swear words and that all such words used by her people came from other languages, particularly Polish.
I didn't look into it. It was a long time ago and I didn't really believe her, but I think the claim is an interesting view into opinions on swearing and different perceptions on such words and the people that use them.
Thanks for the video and good luck in all your endeavors.
Kind regards from Iceland
Hmm okay… here’s a very quick search.
Some people on reddit say that historically Latvians didn’t curse ‘aggressively’ and preferred more passive aggressive language to express frustration. Which when translated to English may not appear as ‘swearing’ per se.
And in modern times people prefer to use swear words borrowed from Russian and English.
Ancient Lithuanian apparently didn’t have swear words and they’ve borrowed all their swears from other influential languages. So maybe your friend was Lithuanian?
Estonia has heaps.
:)
Swearing is weird in tv because generally you hear a word that you learned isn’t swearing suddenly makes a g rated show PG because older people running the show think it is. Such as crap, piss. I never knew anyone who thought those were bad words except one senior couple I met at my great grandparents nursing home. Which confused me more because my grandmother grew up with them and never considered those swears. Same with hell, but it was suddenly a swear because hell is a theory of a place and in “soul” they labeled it “language” in the rating when it isn’t in the context
Yeah I guess that goes to show how subjective swear words are. Everyone has a different opinion. So the rules around them are inconsistent and often vague.
@@dailymindtrap and not to mention local words. Like Fanny is g rated here but in some areas it’s not small kid appropriate
My father always said that if you used swear words it showed your ignorance .
I disagree! :D
I used to live in Austria and, since German is the main language there, English swears didn't have the same impact. So we had a dance workshop at our school, and we danced to 24 karat magic (which has the word "shit" in it). It probably wouldn't have been as much of an issue if my class wasn't part of a bilingual program and spoke English, lol. I remember my mom finding it really awkward when we were dancing to it as part of a performance for our parents and there was profanity.
Haha, won’t someone think of the children!?!?!
Dutchy here, and we kind of have a creative way to make everything a n insult or swear word.. liked it thought...
They literally named a medical condition "shit talk"
What medical condition is that?
I’ve heard of “Shit Life Syndrome”
Years ago when my daughter was 4-5 years old, I was doing something and what I thought was under my breath, said oh shit. My daughter asked, what’s wrong daddy? I said oh nothing. She then asked, then why did you say oh shit for.
Kids are smart
12:55 stuff like this was not restricted to the 80s. My parents had a Clearplay dvd player that removed offensive language and scenes (I did not know about the tobacco scene in The Sandlot as a kid, just a random hard cut)
In the age of streaming they use Vidangel to watch Stranger Things and such, heavily abridged I imagine
My old university lecturer Prof Anus had a potty mouth.
Clever
Kids should be allowed to swear but should be taught that there is a time or place and that it can be used to hurt others.
Like if I had a kid I think ok times to swear would be…like…if you stubbed your toe and yell out a loud “FUUCK”. I think I saw a study once that swearing when hurt can help you feel better. It’s an expressive word.
Yes! Lots of studies now support the idea that swearing reduces pain. Very cool
13:30 Anyone who would buy this device must lead a very boring and bland life.
My favorite, "no sh&t, Sherlock" when you are pointing out how what someone said was stupidly obvious.
Another good one! My list of words with shit in them is up to 60 now.
I swear... by the moon and the sky up above... I'll be there.
My favourite “Yo Mumma” joke always was “Yo Mumma so fat she gets tangled up in a cordless phone”… Yeah, I’m a 90’s kid.
Okay, I did “laugh out loud”.
Fantastic video. First I’ve seen of your work. Immediately subscribe. 😅
Ah thank you! Welcome to the party 🎉
My favourite is the unofficial slogan of the Northern Territory, CU in the NT
I'm in the U.S., and "C. U. Next Tuesday" is probably my favorite of all these words. I cvn't care if someone is offended by it, especially when not directed *at* someone in a derogatory way. In almost all cases, if you're offended by a word, it's probably your fault. The "n-word" is about the only exception. I would never use it in *any* context.
Yeah I agree slurs are another matter but I also see the problem with giving them too much power.
Definitely context is important when it comes to swearing around/at other people.
I don't worry about offending people with my words. If someone finds something I say offensive, that's their problem, not mine. Speaking of linguistic reclamation, the word "yankee" was originally hurled at American soldiers by British soldiers during the American Revolution and meant as an insult. We decided to wear it with pride.
Interesting!
Yes well, sticks and stones right?
Fr, the first thing you learn in anyone's language is swear words lol.
It is!! 😆
The judicial use of the classic swear words can be quite effective and appropriate. But don’t over use them. Slurs on the other hand are fucking off limits! I don’t tolerate that shit
An Australian talking about swearing. Sounds about right, mad cahnt!
Wow great video! I always find it very difficult to not swear. It's so hard to flip that switch or perhaps just requires too much conscious effort. Sorry to all the kids and elderly ive cursed in front of
I’m with you there. No filter lol
As a citizen of Columbus Ohio, we swear a fuckton. But we're still nicer than your average new yorker
Pardon while I piss myself. That TVGuardian has a demo video - with this warning:
TVGuardian 501HD Demo Video (Please note, you will hear the ‘S’ word).
If you already have a TVGuardian (o yea of excessive phonetic sensitivity), you can't check the demo video. (If it works.) Oh shit.
lol.
Swear words...my favorite!
I'm not afraid of God anyway.
Anything God has ever done, is doing, or will ever do, has only been done by humans anyway!
Ty.
I never fukin swear. I hate that shit...
Bloody oath.
such an interesting video concept and such high quality (as usual); also really love that diamond/checker(?) shirt you're wearing (do you remember where you got it?)
Thank you!
Unfortunately the shirt was an op-shop buy. It was a good find. ^^
30:12 I have the original vinyl record from the 70's I believe
I don't swear at all, but this was interesting regardless. 😊
On a side note, though I know where and when is the time to swear, I actually enjoy hearing women swear a lot, and I'm a guy. 😍 Please don't hate me. 🥺
I like hearing women swear too
Wasnt Carlin arrested after one of the performances of that set ?
Your new picture really threw me off in my notifications 😂
😉
Did anyone else look up profanities in the dictionary as a kid?
Of course!
I might be wrong, but I swore the "sc" in Old English was pronounced like an "sh" sound. So, I think those words were much closer to their modern equivalents.
You might very well be right!
Pronunciation isn’t my strong suit. 😅
Where did you get the idea that Esperanto was “designed to be free from swearing”? That’s both untrue and would make no sense.
I’m not an expert but I have read several sources that suggest that L. L. Zamenhof and other pioneers of Esperanto did not prioritise profanity, obscenities, or terms for sex acts or bodily functions in the original creation of the language, but Esperantists who came later created their own terms inspired by other languages. So I stand by what I said but if you can point me in the direction of your sources I’m more than open to looking into it further.
I wonder how reliable the TV Guardian was, and how it worked. Off to Wikipedia
They’re still making them! Technology connections does a fun review of the old version: ruclips.net/video/ZiXg6H_FycI/видео.html
Weird how there are no swears for fart
Does ‘shart’ count?
12:08 agreed the only things i support censoring is cp and extreme gore or at least make them as hard to find as possible both are horrible scarring and exploitative
1.23- you just said the f word- reported!
I'm from germany where it is not really a thing to censor swearing, parents and kids would say anything really. it was a bit of a culture shock coming into international media, usa centric movies etc, where there was suddenly such a big effort to bleep, swap out words (like shit to crap) or just not say anything "dirty" or even just god and other religious words?
I really had to learn that the culture is different! and especially that curse words are reserved for adults mostly.
and to this day I struggle to understand the point of bleeping, or starring out some letters... you still know what word is meant, right? my brain just fills in f*** for example, whether it is censored or not makes no effective difference to me other than the bleep sound often being painful or annoying..... but still people don't choose to mute or cut out the whole word. that would be more logical to me
it's so weird to me. idk.
I agree. I also wonder if the “bleep” sound does the same thing for our brains anyway. Like hearing it signals to us that we’re hearing a swear word. So what does it accomplish in the end?
Also thanks for the cultural info. Very interesting. I think America is more concerned about swearing than any other country.
Great monologue.
I believe you shouldn't use these words as they are rude, and you should try not to be rude.
But. Censoring or forbidding them is silly and backwards. For all the reasons you and George Carlin spoke about.
The main reason for me, is the power it gives them. So much power.
Also bleeping is just so annoying.
Also, in the right setting, swearing and cursing is great.
Sounds like a balanced perspective. I agree for the most part! :)
8:58 I don't typically use the classic swears because I like playing with words. I use the name of a bad guy from history because I love the sound of his name, but he's a garbage person.
23:32 costume change or conservative twin sister?
And here I thought the N word was worse than the C word
I think it is?
Ironically, my comment was censored for ironically using all the words. Hahaha😂
oh yeah RUclips hates irony ;)
@@dailymindtrap
I'll try again:
"F---ing $hit, this bloody b!tch is a real cvnt."
For what its worth, i also agree that linguistic taboos are an essential feature of language, but, i feel that they develop organically and don't necesaarily need to be preserved or perpetuated.
Where did you get that checkered shirt? It’s so cute and I need it in my life lol
Ah it’s great isn’t it! Unfortunately I don’t know, it was an op-shop buy.
Fascinating
There's no swear words in Slovene! Any that get used are borrowed from Serbian, Croatian, English, or other languages.
Ah very cool! Thanks for that!
Nice one!
Thank you! Cheers!
awesome video i loved it
Thank you!

Haha I did - and decided I didn’t give enough shits to re-record. ^^
@@dailymindtrap great channel btw, I just found you yesterday 👍
Yay! Welcome to the party 🎉
I never thought about swearing as artistic expression but I think that is perfect. Art for the most part is an expression of many things including emotion, so I feel that it serves a very important role in emotional expression for us. Not enough time to type a more thought out response but I loved the video, well researched and presented.
Good point! I think the argument for movies, tv, literature, basically different forms of artistic expression, is that swearing has a place. If we’re artistically commenting on reality then swearing is a part of the real world; how humans communicate, show emotion as you say - and therefore it should be allowed. Same could be said for education. Swearing has purpose beyond offending people. Thanks for your comment, I’m glad you enjoyed my video. :)
What is the origin of the word 'Grawlix'? Is it named for someone? Is it just made up by someone? Is the origin known?
Just a quick search online: Merriam Webster says the late cartoonist Mort Walker coined the term at some point in the last century.
“Walker coined a number of terms for the tropes of comic drawing, and he collected them in a book, The Lexicon of Comicana, published in 1980…There’s nothing to indicate where Walker came up with grawlix, but it is notable that the word resembles growl, which suggests the kind of muttering sound one makes when angry.”
Your Scottish accent it's South Carolina by way of Cornwall.
That’s totally what I was going for
Coinpurse is a weird relative to money bag still used in some places. It'd be neat to explore cultures that are radically different with respect to profanity. Why do Germans allow breasts but forbid blood?? Relative to swearing, where does the lack of "appropriate" honorifics fall?
Yeah I agree that would be interesting to explore. From what I can see, cultural and religious values have played a big role in how profanity has evolved in different countries.
Like many European countries, which suffered through deadly plagues, using diseases as curses and insults. Or places like Quebec that never really went through the stage of visceral profanity because religious values dominated.
This video was obviously English-centric but I’d love to know more about other languages too…
I know but my whole i would as a child to get my Mother who did curse like a sailor. But im being physically attacked by things im not what a warlock is. Or scientology i just thetes a heavy collection of great courses books and it almost so cut and dry. I know Oh Btian see im in a hutry of have nonsense or people yo listen to me. Like my Aunt.

If you can’t swear, you can always say this 🤭
Whale, Oil, Beef, Hooked M8 innit
I fucking love slurs 😂
Calling people out for being bigots isnt a slur. Otherwise this video was good.
Technically a slur is just a disparaging or insulting remark. But I guess we mostly talk about slurs made about minority groups (race, gender, etc) these days.
The term “bigot” is an interesting one I don’t think I mentioned in this video.
From the 1590s, likely a French derogatory term meaning “sanctimonious person, religious hypocrite”.
It hasn’t been in popular use since the 1800s but it’s having a revival now with an evolved meaning that isn’t necessarily tied to religion. “One who is narrow-mindedly devoted to his or her own ideas and groups.”
Interesting!
Thanks for your comment :)
This vid was the shit :D
:D
I have the largest functional vocabulary of anyone I know by a wide margin, and I literally do not trust anyone who doesn't swear liberally when appropriate.

Haha It’s one of those things.. the more you’re told not to do it, the more you do it.
