Question:
want to create a list of "dirty words" for my esl students
?can anyone suggest a source of such a list
.i was surprised at what a short list i was able to generate
.i'm sure i must be missing a lot
Answer:
-The problem then being that your ESL students may not take well your
warnings to use those words sparingly, nor with due consideration of
the circumstances less unacceptable. Simply because Internet is,
increasingly, a foulmouthed place, does not mean that your ESL students
would be well accepted on using those words with unmeasured abandon. For
instance, I would /have to/ lift an eyebrow when someone darkens my door and
chances upon the fouler expression that corresponds to, and exceeds
in bite, ///when the smoke hits the fan
