My mum, for some reason, once asked me what my favourite swear word was - I told her "fuck" because "it doesn't mean anything".

This isn't mine (seriously!) but I knew a guy who, when he was about 12, still thought the word "fuck" just meant the same thing as "shit", as I discovered when he told me a bird had fucked on his coat.

While I was growing up, my Mother's approach to swearing and 'rude' words was to explain the meanings of each one... from Prat: pregnant goldfish & Dork: Whale's penis right through to the more biologically unacceptable ones. It worked to a large degree - I never tell people to 'Bugger Off,' etc. mainly because as I do so I picture what I'm actually telling them to do! *Yuk!*

However, she came to a stumbling block when the word 'Bastard' entered my vacabulary... she was called up by the school one day by the head master and asked to do something about my behaviour - I was merrily running about, proudly boasting to all & sundry about what a Bastard I was! *g*

One time when I was 6 I heard some one say FUCK and I thought they said fug. So at Christmas that year when all my relitives were here they were giving all the atension to my baby brother. They were using baby talk like whose a little baby wabbie. So I went up to my baby brother and said whose a little fuga fuga fuga and every body broke out laughing.

When I was little, I saw my brother giving the finger to this kid across the street. He was standing in our courtyard in front of the house. I asked him what it meant, and he refused to tell me. So I gave the guy the finger,too. My brother was so mad at me and he refused to tell me what it was all about. Then I went inside and asked Mom what it meant and showed her the finger. She asked me where I had learned it. I told her from my brother. Her face became red (from her trying not to laugh), and she said, "that is a very bad word, and you should not say that again".

My cousin used to babysit alot and watch MTV, refering to some of the girls as whores. I thought this was a reference to Frankenstein or something (HORror movies). I was watching a monster movie with my dad one time and called the monster a whore. He almost died laughing.

When I was around 4, I once heard an adult say "Oh, s**t" under his breath. It could have been by dad, but I dunno. I asked him what he said, and he told me he said "yittybit." To this day, I still say "Oh yittybit!" at school when I'm mad.

When I was seven, I was in swimming lessons. I was getting changed back into my street clothes in my 'cubicle' when I saw the f word written on the wall.

I thought F*ck was a funny name for some kind of mushroom.

I repeated it until I was scolded by my parents and my sister and we got out of the building asap. I finally learned that f*ck meant something radically different than a mushroom.

Ok. I used to think "fudge" was a swear!

I saw this random movie when I was very little. This boy said a swear, the f word, and back then, I didn't know they cut it out. I couldn't hear it, but a woman called his mother and told her that her son said, "fudge".

Then... the mother put soap in his mouth! I was horrified! I didn't say "fudge" for a VERY VERY long time...

When I was little, I used to get "bastard" and "mustard" confused. I thought "mustard" was the insult. As a result, if I wanted to insult someone, I called them a "mustard"... this led to a great deal of confusion. Now, about 12 years later, me and my friends use "mustard" as an insult to people who don't know the story ("You're a mustard!").

When i was 7, i thought f*** was some sort of naughty British name for a street in London because that's what my mom said it was. A few months later, I was at a sleepover and my friends asked if i knew what f*** meant and i told them what my mom had told me and my friend cracked up and told me what it "really meant"(she said it was a female dog.) I argued with her for a good hour and a half and we stayed in a fight for 3 months. Now that we both know what f*** means, we joke about our fight all the time.
