Jenna Wolf of The Lotus Room

For 12 & Broad

It is true, as Mark Twain said, that “under certain circumstances, profanity provides relief denied even to prayer.” We all have our favorite cuss words on hand for stubbed toes, moments of bewilderment and emphatic exclamations.

But how much does dirty language really belong in everyday conversations with ourselves and others?

Each word that we speak carries with it an inherent vibrational frequency. High vibrational language tends to leave people feeling happy, cared for and understood. Lower-frequency jargon can lead to feelings of belittlement, hurt or possible offense — even when the words are not intentionally directed at us. While swearing is by no means “wrong,” in some conversations it can just be simply unnecessary. Whether you're hanging around impressionable children, conversing in work environments or looking to save money from the “swear jar,” it is valuable to keep a few cleaned-up terms in your back pocket for those four-letter-word life moments. Shake up conversations, expand your vocabulary and elevate your language with these 50 swear-word alternatives sure to leave you and your listeners with the giggles rather than in shock:
