People usually learn how to swear since they were teenagers. They pick up swear words when talking with other same-age teenagers or watching strong-language films, such as in gangster or action ones. In the beginning, they are not aware of what they are saying, they just want to be cool in front of other boys or prove themselves to be mature by acting like adults. As a consequence, they get used to swear words in their daily speaking as a habit.
By swearing, people can express their feeling, mostly angry and unhappy, emphasize their message or attract the attention from others, even in some circumstances scare or show their superiority over others. In most cases, we’d better avoid using swear words. We just can use them when we know for sure that it will not hurt other people, usually between close friends. Swearing is considered rude by a lot of people, so swearing in public should be very careful.
