When Is The Right Time To Swear?

The Right time to swear is when you are in a argument or a conversation. Instead of saying swear words just say sugar instead of saying the S word.


Swearing Is a bad word, and can offend some people. People that go to church say it is in the bible and is like against God. It looks like swearing is illegal because it’s disobeying God. Swearing is a bad word because I think you don’t believe God or Jesus.

Residents in a small town outside Boston, USA, have voted to fine people for swearing public. They have banned swearing and will cost (US) $20 dollar fine. They thought about people swearing quietly in their private conversations, but they considered only banning loud and bad language.  At a town meeting, the residents voted and the police chief approved the votes.

Slang Means attack (someone) using abusive language and a type of language that consists of words and phrases that are regarded as very informal, are more common in speech than writing, and are typically restricted to a particular context or group of people.
