Q.
Are English swear words acceptable or frowned upon in your culture?
A.
Swearing is unfortunately quite common in America. However, it is highly frowned upon when someone swears in public in America, especially when there are children around. The offender will usually be told to mind their language if they swear in public. During the years I worked in Singapore, I noticed that a lot of teenagers liked to use English swear words and they don’t understand that it is a bad thing to do. To them, it is just what they hear in American movies and they think it is “cool”.
