Swearing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (155 words)
To swear can mean either to make an oath, or to utter profanity.
A court witness will have to swear to tell the truth, sometimes by the name of a deity or upon things considered holy, for example a Bible or a Qur'an.
Use of this type of swearing in inappropriate or trivial circumstances, or in some traditions "taking the Lord's name in vain," is often considered wrong or sinful.
Swearing (1532 words)
Although much of the public angst surrounding swear words concerns their explicit meanings, a personal survey involving a wide variety of spoken sources revealed that only 7% of the swear words used were intended literally (and most of these literal examples were relatively mild words such as arse).
Swear words may be deliberately positioned in such a way as to create alliteration or assonance.
Swearing may also be beneficial as a means of relieving pent-up anger, and studies have indicated that those who swear regularly suffer less from stress than those who do not.
