Anyone know the etymology of our common swear words? It struck me that the origins of these words are rarely discussed, but I’m sure that some people out there know where they came from, or at least have intelligent conjecture on the subject.
Hey! I wrote my Linguistics paper on that very subject! Whadya wanna know, kid?
Do you have the paper handy? I’d love to read it. A friend of a friend is starting a website selling T-shirts with the word “Fugg” used in different ways on them. Yes, it’s lame. http://www.fuggingear.com/ Anyways, I’d be happy to link back to your page if it’s a website, or to give you credit for the info at the least. Thanks,
Steve
