Sellest, miks inimesed vannuvad ja ropendavad..

Sattusin orkutis ringi surfama ja nagu vahel harva juhtub, on asised inimesed jaganud linke huvitavatele asjadele. Seekord siis õpetlik artikkel Bonost ja sõnast fucking:

Steven Pincher - "What the F***?"

Isutekitajaks üks meeldejääv lõik Pincheri kirjatööst:

"Language has often been called a weapon, and people should be mindful about where to aim it and when to fire. The common denominator of taboo words is the act of forcing a disagreeable thought on someone, and it's worth considering how often one really wants one's audience to be reminded of excrement, urine, and exploitative sex. Even in its mildest form, intended only to keep the listener's attention, the lazy use of profanity can feel like a series of jabs in the ribs. They are annoying to the listener and a confession by the speaker that he can think of no other way to make his words worth attending to."

Ilus kokkuvõte.
