Rather than social status and age.

The widespread belief that teenagers swear many times more than mature people fails at Russian roads, in car repair shops and undistinguished drinking establishments. Here people do not hold back the impulses that come from the heart, splashing out a wave of their negativity on the interlocutor and those around them. In most cases, the use of swearing is due to a lack of vocabulary or the fact that a person is not able to express his words and thoughts in a more civilized form.

From the point of view of esotericism and religion, a scolding person from the inside decomposes himself and badly affects the surrounding space, releasing negative energy. It is believed that these people get sick more often than those who keep their tongue clean.

Obscene language can be heard in completely different layers. Often in the media you can find reports of another scandal with famous politicians or movie and show business stars who publicly used profanity. The paradox is that even someone who uses profanity to connect words in a sentence denounces such celebrity behavior and considers it unacceptable.

Relation of the law to the use of profanity

Code of administrative offenses clearly regulates the use of swear words and expressions in a public place. Violator of peace and order to pay a fine, and in some cases, foul language may be subject to administrative arrest. However, in Russia and most of the CIS countries, this law is observed only when swear words were used by a law enforcement officer.
Cursing is swearing regardless of profession, wealth and level of education. However, for many, the presence of older people, young children and work that involves polite interaction with people is a deterrent.

Resourceful people a couple of decades ago found a way out of the situation: along with obscenities in oral speech appeared his surrogate. The words “damn”, “star”, “to get out” do not seem to be a foul language in the literal sense of the word and cannot fall under the corresponding article by definition, but they carry the same meaning and the same negative as their predecessors, and such words are constantly being added.

On forums and in the discussion of news, as a rule, the use of strong words is prohibited, but surrogates have successfully bypassed this barrier as well. Thanks to the appearance of an obscene surrogate, parents no longer hesitate to use it in the presence, harming the cultural development of their child, introducing the immature to the use of swear words.

Taboo vocabulary includes certain layers of vocabulary that are banned due to religious, mystical, political, moral and other reasons. What are the prerequisites for its occurrence?

Varieties of taboo vocabulary

Among the subspecies of taboo vocabulary, one can consider sacred taboos (on pronouncing the name of the creator in Judaism). The anathema to pronouncing the name of the alleged game during the hunt refers to a mystical taboo layer. It is for this reason that the bear is called the “owner” in bullying, and the word “bear” itself is a derivative of the phrase “in charge of honey”.

Obscene language

.

One of the most significant species taboo vocabulary is obscene or vocabulary, in the common people - mat. Three main versions can be distinguished from the history of the origin of Russian obscene vocabulary. Adherents of the first hypothesis argue that the Russian mat originated as a legacy Tatar-Mongol yoke. Which in itself is debatable, given that most of the obscene roots go back to the Proto-Slavic origins. According to the second version, swear words once had several lexical meanings, one of which over time supplanted all the others and was assigned to the word. The third theory says that swear words were once a significant component of the occult rituals of the pre-Christian period.

Let's consider lexical metamorphoses on the example of the most cult formulations. It is known that in ancient times to “fuck” meant “to cross out a cross on a cross”. Accordingly, "dick" was called the cross. Turnover "fuck everyone" was introduced into use by ardent supporters of paganism. Thus, they wished Christians to die on the cross, by analogy with their own god. Needless to say, current users of the language use this word in a completely different context.

Swearing also played an important role in the rites and rituals of pagan origin, usually associated with fertility. In addition, it should be noted that most conspiracies for death, illness, love spells, etc. abound with obscene lexemes.

It is known that many lexical units that are now considered obscene were not such until the 18th century. These were completely ordinary words denoting parts (or features of the physiological structure) of the human body and not only. So, the Proto-Slavic "jebti" originally meant "beat, hit", "huj" - "needle coniferous tree, something sharp and poignant." The word "pisda" was used in the meaning of "urinary organ". Recall that the verb "whore" once meant "to idle talk, to lie." "Fornication" - "evasion from the established path", as well as "illegal cohabitation". Later both verbs merged together.

It is believed that before the invasion of Napoleonic troops in 1812, swear words were not particularly in demand in society. However, as it turned out in the process, hazing was much more effective in the trenches. Since then, swearing has become firmly rooted as the main form of communication in the troops. Over time, the officer stratum of society popularized obscene vocabulary to such an extent that it turned into urban slang.

Modern dictionaries and reference books explain the term "swear words" as a category of language related to obscene language. Often a parallel is drawn, or even a complete synonymization of the concepts of "swear words" and "obscene". It is assumed that the abusive vocabulary includes exclusively obscene, obscenely vile, vulgar words and expressions. And the swear words themselves are regarded as a spontaneous reaction to certain events or sensations.

Instruction

By definition of swear words as part of obscene language, there is a certain thematic classification of swear words and expressions:
- emphasized negative characteristics a person, including obscene definitions;
- names of taboo body parts;
- obscene names of sexual intercourse;
- names of physiological acts and the results of their administration.

Everything would be too simple and clear, if not for one "but". One does not need to be a professional linguist in order not to trace the similarities in words and expressions: “swearing”, “self-assembly”, “battlefield”, “decoration”. Some linguists attribute this similarity to the origin of the vocabulary of the predecessor of the Indo-European language. The lexical unit of the proto-language - "br", could mean the common property of the tribe, food, and underlay the word formation of many terms from which the words "take", "brashna", as well as "bor", "bortnik" originated. It is assumed that the expression "scold" could come from military booty, and "battlefield" is a booty field. Hence the “self-collecting tablecloth” and, which is typical, “burden / pregnancy / pregnancy”, as well as agricultural terms - “harrow”, “furrow”.

Over time, the words associated with the reproduction of offspring were grouped into the category of "swear words", but they did not belong to the obscene vocabulary. Swearing vocabulary was taboo, only priests could use it and only in cases stipulated by customs, mainly in erotic rites associated with agricultural magic. This guides the hypothesis about the origin of the word "mat" - agriculture - "swear words" - "mother - cheese".

With the adoption of Christianity, the use of swear words was completely banned, but among the people most of the words in this category were not positioned as offensive. Until the 18th century, modern swear words were used as an equal part of the Russian language.

note

The list of swear words is not permanent - some words go away or lose their negative connotation, such as the word "oud", which contemporaries do not perceive otherwise than as the root of the word "fishing rod", but in the 19th century it was forbidden to be used at the legislative level as a designation of the male sexual organ.

The list of weed words is quite wide. Surely you had to catch such constructions in the speech of the interlocutor: “in general”, “as it were”, “this”, “well”, “so to speak”, “this is the same”, “like him”. In the youth environment, recently it has become very widespread what came from of English language the word Ok ("okay").

Weed words - an indicator of general and speech culture

Among the verbal rubbish there is something that is considered indecent in any cultural society. This is about profanity. Elements of foul language, no doubt, speak of an extremely low level common culture. Swearing carries a very strong expressive charge. In some cases, socially acceptable substitutes for obscene words are used, such as "fir-trees-sticks". It is better to refrain from even such seemingly harmless expressions, even if the situation is conducive to an emotional response.

If you notice signs of weedy words in your speech, try to get them under control. Awareness of speech deficiency is the first step to its elimination. Constant control over the quality of your speech will help you express your thoughts more accurately and become a pleasant conversationalist.

The hedgehog came out of the fog, ran out of marijuana, he suddenly found hemp, and went into the fog again!

And again I step into the bottomless heights, with a huge poster ... "Fuck it all."

Let's see where this infectious thing came from. The mystical origins of such a phenomenon as a mat go back to the pagan past. To protect themselves from the attacks of the demonic world, people of the pre-Christian era contacted him.

Where did mats come from?

The spells that were addressed to pagan idols consisted of their names. And just at that time the cult of fertility was widespread. Thus, most of the mats are associated with the genitals of a man and a woman. The Slavs were also familiar with obscene language. For example, the swear word of a girl of easy virtue "b ..." is found on Novgorod notes and birch bark letters XII century. It just meant something completely different. The meaning of the word was the name of a demon with whom only sorcerers communicated. According to ancient beliefs, this demon punished sinners by sending them a disease, which is now called "womb rabies."

Another word, the verb "e ...", is of Slavic origin, and is translated as cursing.

The remaining swear words are the names of pagan gods, or demonic names. When a person swears, he calls demons on himself, his family, his family.

Thus, checkmate is an appeal to demons, only it consists of spells and names of certain demons. This shows the history of the mat.

In other words, mat is the language of communication with demons.

The impact of the mat on human health

Just here are 6 facts about the influence of mats:

1. The influence of the mat on DNA

Human words can be represented as electromagnetic vibrations that directly affect the properties and structure of DNA molecules responsible for heredity. If a person uses swear words every day, a “negative program” begins to be produced in DNA molecules and they change significantly. Scientists say: "dirty" word causes a mutagenic effect similar to radiation exposure.

Swear words have a negative effect on genetic code cursing, are written in it, become a curse for the person himself and his heirs.

2. Swear words travel along different nerve endings than regular words.

There is a medical observation that people suffering from paralysis, in the complete absence of speech, speak exclusively in obscenities. Although at the same time he is not able to say either “Yes” or “No”. At first glance, the phenomenon, although very strange, says a lot. Why does a completely paralyzed person express exclusively obscenities? Does it have a different nature than ordinary words?

3. The effect of the mat on the water. Scientific experiment.

Germ technology has long been used in biology and agriculture.

Water is processed by some influence, and grains of wheat are processed by this water.

Three types of words were used:

Prayer "Our Father"
Mat household, which is used to connect speech
The mat is aggressive, with a pronounced expression.
Through certain time the number of germinated grains and the length of the sprouts are checked.

On the second day

The control batch sprouted 93% of the grains
In a batch of grains treated with prayer - 96% of the grains. And the longest sprouts, up to 1 cm.
In a batch treated with household mat - 58% of grains
The expressive mat influenced so that only 49% of the grains grew. The length of the sprouts is not uniform and mold has appeared.
Scientists believe that the appearance of mold is the result of a strong negative impact mat on the water.

More time later.

Influence of household mat - only 40% of germinated grains remain
The influence of the expressive mat - only 15% of germinated grains remained.
Seedlings dipped in water treated with a mat show that this environment is not suitable for them.

Man is 80% water. Draw your own conclusion, my friends.

4. Swear words very often come out of people from whom demons are cast out.

This is recognized by all confessions: from Orthodox to Protestants.

For example, an Orthodox priest, Father Sergius, writes: “The so-called mat is the language of communication with demonic forces. It is no coincidence that this phenomenon is called infernal vocabulary. Infernal means hellish, from the underworld. It is very easy to make sure that mate is a demonic phenomenon. go to russian Orthodox church during the report. And take a close look at the person who is reprimanded by prayer. He will moan, scream, struggle, growl, and the like. And the worst thing is that they swear very strongly ...

Thanks to science, it has been proven that not only the morality of a person suffers because of the mat, but also his health!

Ivan Belyavsky is one of the first scientists who put forward this theory. He believes that every mat is an energy charge that negatively affects human health.

It has already been proven that the mat came from the sacred names of the gods. The word "mat" means "strength". A destructive force that affects the DNA of a person and destroys him from the inside, especially women and children.

5. Swear words have a detrimental effect on women.

Abuse of the mat is detrimental to the hormonal background of a woman. Her voice becomes low, testosterone is in excess, fertility decreases, the disease hirsutism appears ...

6. The influence of swear words on a person in countries where there is no abuse against the reproductive organs.

Another very interesting fact. In countries where there is no swearing indicating the reproductive organ, cerebral palsy and Down syndromes have not been found. But in the CIS countries, these diseases exist. Unfortunately…

How to get rid of the influence of the mat?

You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.

We have already proven the origin of swear words. Consider a scientific experiment. But the task of this series and the project "Word of Encouragement" is to encourage, to help overcome every vice that binds a person.

Here we will give a recipe for liberation from swear words, which is tested on personal experience. Just 5 easy steps.

Recognize

It is very important to recognize that swear words are a vice that has a destructive effect on a person. It is to recognize, not to resist.

repent

Warm repentance before God is very important.

He is the Lord, He knows everything. And He will help, but first, just repent that this dirty scolding came out of your mouth.

Accept yourself as a new creation

If you have prayed the prayer of repentance, then you have become a new creation, a child of Almighty God. And before that, every person is a sinner, a product of the devil.

Many in the world say "Why reject mats - it's normal!". It's okay if you're a sinful person. And if you repented before God, asked for forgiveness for your sins, you have already become a new creation.

And you need to take it

The Word of God says:

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, whoever is in Christ is a new creation; the old has passed, now everything is new.

Start thinking well of yourself, thinking of yourself as a beloved child of God, as the one for whom the Lord gave His Son.

Trust God. You have become different inside.

Eph.5:8 You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord: walk as children of light,

Believe that words are capsules filled with power.

In fact, this entire series is about that. What we say is what we have.

But you, if you have already cursed, you need to accept it again. Your mats have produced one action in your life.

Now you need your words to bring good.

Col.4:6 Your word [let it be] always with grace

Eph 4:29 Let no rotten word come out of your mouth, but only good for edification in the faith, that it may bring grace to those who hear.

This means that every time you open your mouth, ask God for wisdom so that your words will bring grace and benefit to those who listen.

Consecrate your mouth, your tongue to God.

This is not just a decision: “since the New Year, I’m giving up swearing.”

It is a decision that your mouth belongs to the Lord, the Creator of heaven and earth. And you will only bless God and His creations with your lips.

Jas 3:9-10 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God. From the same mouth comes a blessing and a curse: it must not, my brethren, be like this.

If you dedicate your mouth to God, it won't be easy. But even when you stumble, remember that the word of God says "it must not be." God does not give impossible tasks. If it's written in His Word, then it's real. And that means that it is possible to live in such a way as not to utter curses and swear words against loved ones.

Word of Encouragement

I would like to end in a very good place.

Remember that for every word you will give an account. And if you say a lot of good things in the lives of loved ones, bless your wife / husband, children, parents, employees - God will bring these words to judgment. And from these words you will be justified. So says the Word of God

Matthew 12:36-37 I tell you that for every idle word that people speak, they will answer in the day of judgment: 37 for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

And what Russian does not express itself with a strong word? And it is true! Moreover, many swear words have been translated into foreign languages, but it is interesting that there are no full-fledged analogues of Russian swear words in foreign languages no, and probably never will. It is no coincidence that not a single great Russian writer and poet has bypassed this phenomenon!

How and why did the obscene language appear in Russian?

Why do other languages ​​do without it? Perhaps someone will say that with the development of civilization, with the improvement in the well-being of citizens in the vast majority of countries on our planet, the need for mat naturally disappeared? Russia is unique in that these improvements did not occur in it, and the mat in it remained in its virgin, primitive form ...

Where did he come from anyway?

Previously, a version was spread that the mat appeared in the dark times of the Tatar-Mongol yoke, and before the arrival of the Tatars to Russia, Russians did not swear at all, but cursing, they called each other only dogs, goats and rams.

However, this opinion is erroneous and is denied by the majority of research scientists. Of course, the invasion of nomads influenced the life, culture and speech of the Russian people. Perhaps such a Turkic word as “baba-yagat” (knight, knight) changed social status and gender, turning into our Baba Yaga. The word "karpuz" (watermelon) turned into a well-fed little boy. But the term "fool" (stop, halt) began to be called a stupid person.


Math has nothing to do with the Turkic language, because it was not customary for nomads to use foul language, and swear words were completely absent from the dictionary. From Russian chronicle sources (the oldest known samples in birch bark letters of the 12th century from Novgorod and Staraya Russa. See “Obscene vocabulary in birch bark letters.” The specifics of the use of some expressions are commented on in the Russian-English Dictionary Diary by Richard James (1618–1619) .) it is known that swear words appeared in Russia long before the Tatar-Mongol invasion. Linguists see the roots of these words in most Indo-European languages, but they only received such distribution on Russian soil.

So why, after all, from the multitude Indo-European peoples mat stuck only to the Russian language?

Researchers explain this fact also by religious prohibitions that other peoples had earlier due to the earlier adoption of Christianity. In Christianity, as in Islam, profanity is considered a great sin. Russia adopted Christianity later, and by that time, along with pagan customs, mat was firmly rooted among the Russian people. After the adoption of Christianity in Russia, war was declared against foul language.

The etymology of the word "mat" may seem quite transparent: supposedly it goes back to the Indo-European word "mater" in the meaning of "mother", which has been preserved in various Indo-European languages. However, special studies suggest other reconstructions.

So, for example, L.I. Skvortsov writes: “The literal meaning of the word “mat” is “a loud voice, a cry.” It is based on onomatopoeia, that is, involuntary cries of “ma!”, “me!” - mooing, meowing, roaring of animals during estrus, mating calls, etc. Such an etymology might seem naive if it did not go back to the concept of the authoritative Etymological Dictionary of Slavic Languages: “... Russian mat, is a derivative of the verb “matati” - “shout”, “loud voice”, “shout”, is related to the word “ matoga" - "to swear", i.e. grimacing, breaking down, (about animals) shaking one's head, "cursing" - to disturb, disturb. But "matoga" in many Slavic languages ​​​​means "ghost, ghost, monster, monster, sorceress" ...

What does it mean?

There are three main swear words and they denote sexual intercourse, male and female genitalia, all the rest are derivatives of these three words. But in other languages, these organs and actions also have their own names, which for some reason did not become abusive words? To understand the reason for the appearance of swear words on Russian soil, the researchers looked into the depths of centuries and offered their own answer.

They believe that in the vast territory between the Himalayas and Mesopotamia, in the vast expanses, there lived a few tribes of the ancestors of the Indo-Europeans, who had to breed in order to expand their habitat, therefore great importance was attached to the reproductive function. And the words associated with the reproductive organs and functions were considered magical. They were forbidden to pronounce "in vain", so as not to jinx it, not to cause damage. Taboos were broken by sorcerers, followed by untouchables and slaves, to whom the law was not written.

Gradually, a habit appeared to express obscenities from the fullness of feelings or simply for a bunch of words. The main words began to acquire many derivatives. Not so long ago, only a thousand years ago, a word denoting lung woman"f*ck" behavior. It comes from the word “vomit”, that is, “spew out an abomination”.


But the most important swear words rightfully considered the very word of three letters, which is found on the walls and fences of the entire civilized world. Let's take it as an example. When did this three-letter word appear? I will say one thing for sure, which is clearly not in the Tatar-Mongolian times. In the Turkic dialect of the Tatar-Mongolian languages, this “object” is denoted by the word “kutakh”. By the way, many now have a surname derived from this word and do not at all consider it dissonant: “Kutahov”.

But what was the name of the genital organ in ancient times?

Many Slavic tribes it was designated by the word "oud", from which, by the way, quite a decent and censored "fishing rod" comes from. But still, in most tribes, the genital organ was called nothing more than “x * y”. However, this three-letter word, around the 16th century, was replaced by a three-letter more literary analogue - “dick”. Most literate people know that this is exactly what (dick) was the name of the 23rd letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, which turned into the letter “ha” after the revolution. For those who know this, it seems obvious that the word "dick" is a euphemistic substitution that arose due to the fact that the replaced word begins with this letter. However, in reality, everything is not so simple.

The fact is that those who think so do not wonder why, in fact, the letter “X” is called a dick? After all, all the letters of the Cyrillic alphabet are called Slavic words, the meaning of most of which is clear to the modern Russian-speaking public without translation. What did this word mean before becoming a letter?

In the Indo-European language-based, which was spoken by the distant ancestors of the Slavs, Balts, Germans and other European peoples, the word "dick" meant a goat. The word is related to the Latin "hircus". In modern Russian, the word “mug” remains a related word to him. Until recently, this word was used to call goat masks used by mummers during carols.


The similarity of this letter to a goat in the 9th century was obvious to the Slavs. The top two sticks are the horns and the bottom two are his legs. Then, among many nationalities, the goat symbolized fertility, and the god of fertility was depicted as a two-legged goat. This idol had an organ between its two legs, symbolizing fertility, which was called “oud” or “x * y”. In the Indo-European language, this part of the body was called "pesus", it corresponds to Sanskrit "पसस्", which is translated into ancient Greek as "peos", Latin "penis", Old English "faesl". This word comes from the verb "peseti", meaning the primary function of this organ is to emit urine.

Thus, we can conclude that the mat arose in ancient times and was associated with pagan rites. Checkmate is, first of all, a way to demonstrate readiness to break taboos, to cross certain boundaries. Therefore, the subject of swearing in different languages similar - "bodily bottom" and everything related to the administration of physiological needs. In addition to "bodily swearing", some peoples (mostly French-speaking) have blasphemous swearing. The Russians don't.


And one more important point- you can’t mix argotism with obscenities, which are absolutely not obscenities, but most likely just foul language. As, for example, there are dozens of thieves’ argotisms with the meaning of “prostitute” in Russian: alyura, barukh, marukh, profursetka, slut, etc.

Swearing accompanies Russia from the moment of its inception. The authorities, social formations, culture and the Russian language itself are changing, but the obscenity remains unchanged.

Native speech

For almost the entire 20th century, the version dominated that the words that we call obscene came into the Russian language from the Mongol-Tatars. However, this is misleading. Swearing is already found in Novgorod birch bark letters dating back to the 11th century: that is, long before the birth of Genghis Khan.

Revolt against matriarchy

The concept of "mate" is rather late. In Russia, from time immemorial, it was called "obscene barking." It must be said that initially the obscene language included exclusively the use of the word "mother" in a vulgar, sexual context. The words denoting the reproductive organs, which we today refer to the mat, did not refer to the “bark of the mother”.

There are dozens of versions of the checkmate function. Some scholars suggest that swearing appeared at the turn of the transition of society from matriarchy to patriarchy and initially meant the imperious assertion of a man who, having passed the rite of intercourse with the “mother” of the clan, publicly announced this to his fellow tribesmen.

dog language

True, the previous version does not explain the use of the word "barking" in any way. On this account, there is another hypothesis, according to which "swearing" had a magical, protective function and was called "dog tongue". In the Slavic (and Indo-European as a whole) tradition, dogs were considered animals of the "afterlife" world and served the goddess of death, Morena. A dog that served an evil witch could turn into a person (even an acquaintance) and come with evil thoughts (inflict evil eye, damage or even kill). So, having felt something was wrong, the potential victim of Morena, just had to utter a protective “mantra”, that is, send him to the “mother”. It was his time to expose the evil demon, the "son of Morena", after which he had to leave the man alone.

It is curious that even in the 20th century, the people still believed that “swearing” scares away devils and it makes sense to swear even “for the sake of prevention”, without seeing a direct threat.

calling for the good

As already mentioned, the Old Russian words denoting the reproductive organs began to be attributed to "swearing" much later. In the pagan era, these lexemes were in common use and did not have a swearing connotation. Everything changed with the advent of Christianity in Russia and the beginning of the displacement of the old "nasty" cults. The words of sexual coloring were replaced with “Church Slavinisms: copulate, childbearing oud, penis, etc. In fact, there was a serious rational grain in this taboo. The fact is that the use of the former "terms" was ritualized and associated with pagan fertility cults, special conspiracies, calls for good. By the way, the very word “good” (in the old Slavic - “bolgo”) meant “a lot” and was used in the beginning precisely in an “agricultural” context.

It took the Church many centuries to reduce agrarian rituals to a minimum, but the “fertile” words remained in the form of “relics”: however, already in the status of curses.

Censorship of the Empress

There is another word that is unfairly referred to today as swearing. For the purposes of self-censorship, let's designate it as "the word with the letter" B ". This lexeme quietly existed in the elements of the Russian language (it can even be found in church texts and official state letters), meaning "fornication", "deceit", "delusion", "heresy", "mistake". The people often used this word to dissolute women. Perhaps, in the time of Anna Ioannovna, this word began to be used with greater frequency and, probably, in the latter context, because it was this empress who imposed a ban on it.

"Thieves" censorship

As you know, in a criminal, or "criminal" environment, swearing is strictly taboo. For a carelessly dropped obscene expression of a prisoner, a much more serious responsibility can await than an administrative fine for public obscene language in the wild. Why do the Urkagans dislike the Russian mate so much? First of all, that swearing can pose a threat to "don't care" or "thieves' music." The keepers of the thieves' traditions are well aware that if the mat displaces the slang, then they will lose their authority, their "uniqueness" and "exclusivity", and most importantly the power in prison, the elite of the criminal world - in other words, "chaos" will begin. It is curious that criminals (unlike statesmen) are well aware of what any language reform and borrowing of other people's words can lead to.

renaissance mata

Today's time can be called the renaissance of swearing. Boom contributes to this social networks where people got the opportunity to swear in public. With some reservations, we can talk about the legitimization of obscene language. There was even a fashion for swearing: if earlier it was the lot of the low strata of society, now the so-called intelligentsia, the creative class, the bourgeoisie, women and children also resort to the “savory word”. It is difficult to say what is the reason for such a revival of “barking obscene language”. But we can safely say that this will not increase crops, matriarchy will not win, it will not cast out demons ...
