Mighty shaggin' good.

Once Joe Offer gives even a slight thumbs up or even a non thumbs down, that's good enough for me.

I am very interested in;
(a) origins of naughty words
(b) naughty words which are not naughty
(c) polite words which are really naughty
(d) ye olde naughty words which we no longer or are rarely used
(e) variations on naughty words
(f) regional naughty words
(g) regional naughty words with innocent meaning in other areas
(h) naughty words in various languages
(i) comparison of naughty words in various languages with similar pronunciations
(j) naughty words and phrases in Latin and Greek (h) and whatever you are having yourself

A few examples follow

(a) "Berk" and "crap" as given in earlier postings
(b) Arse is the correct term for a horse's bum
(c) "Fiddlesticks" comes from old english and translates to penis
(f) Bollocks, bollix, bollicks
(j) "Omnia testicalis est!" = It's all a balls etc.

And what is most facinating is where these words appear in songs, old and new, and how they are used.

Looking forward to your postings.
