Let's watch a really cool show hosted by the great Nicolas Cage called The History Of Swear Words. Let's learn about where these words come from, how they've changed, and the amazingly diverse way they can be used. They're actually often used in complementary and soothing ways, rather than just as insults. To truly master a language, you need to at least know how to use them and understand when others do._x000D_
