    • Sooo misleading. The average varies extremely everywhere. There are some people who curse constantly and some who never do.

      I question the validity of this study. It was a survey where people answered with thier guess of how often they say things. The survey included just 2,319 people out of a population of 61 million.

      This type of study cannot be viewed as anything but trivial. It is not accurate. If they did this survey every day with the same group of people the results could change. If they did it with other groups of people the results would change. If they surveyed everyone the results are still questionable. The only way to get the answer true is to follow all 61,000,000 around for about a year and make a note every time they curse and on which day. Then find the average day for each person, and then find the average of all people. Until then, just take it with a grain (or five) of salt.

    • Oh noes! Magical idea sounds which are evil!

      Seriously, what the hell is wrong with any word? Proper use of fowl language adds spice to the message. What exactly about these words makes them bad? Quack.

    • 14 is just an average - probably most of the 90% who swear every day do it just once or twice a day, and the few who swear every 10 minutes help get such a high average. The article should rather give a median value...

    • Britons do indeed swear an awful lot, it's irritating. It's like "why don't you control your f*cking mouth?!" Londoners are the worst.

    • That's f**king awesome! But seriously, I think swearing is ok in the right circumstances. But when someone says f**k every other word, it makes them sound stupid.
