Here is a paean to the word Fuck. This word has entered general language usage in the past 25 years. I say that because it is common to hear it on the street, on buses/trains, in theaters, whereas a quarter century or so that was not always the case. First used in 1503, it derives from the Dutch fokken (cattle breeding) or Swedish Fokka (Copulate)
But what a marvelous word – it is a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, gerund, …….ad infinitum. Think for a minute how many applications of fuck you can fit in a sentence: I fuckin don't believe what that fucker just tried to fuckin do to me. He can just fuck himself!
So how many times a day do you use the word? What percentage of your word usage does it represent, and how many times can you fit it in a grammatically correct sentence?
