From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The phrase four-letter word refers to a set of English-language words written with four letters which are considered profane, including common popular or slang terms for excretory functions, sexual activity and genitalia, blasphemies, terms relating to Hell or damnation when used outside of religious contexts, or slurs. The «four-letter» claim refers to the fact that many (but not all) English «swear words» are incidentally four-character monosyllables. The term was used in this sense as early as 1886 in the United States and Great Britain.[1]

History[edit]

Common four-letter words (in this sense) that are widely considered vulgar or offensive to a notable degree include: cunt, fuck (and regional variants such as feck, fick, fock and foak), jism (or gism), jizz, shit, slut, twat and tits. Piss (formerly an offensive swear word) in particular, however, may be used in non-excretory contexts (pissed off, i.e. «angry», in US English and British UK English; pissed, i.e. «drunk» in UK English) that are often not considered particularly offensive, and the word also occurs several times with its excretory meaning in the King James Bible. Several of these have been declared legally indecent under the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) TV and radio open-airwave broadcasting regulations.

A number of additional words of this length are upsetting to some, for religious or personal sensitivity reasons, such as: arse (UK), damn, crap, hell, piss, wang, and wank (UK). Racist, ableist, and slurs pertaining to an individual’s sexual orientation may also qualify, such as mong (in the UK not a racial slur,[citation needed] but short for Mongol, or someone with Down syndrome – previously called Mongolism), gook, kike, spic, coon, dago and dyke.

Several «four-letter words» have multiple meanings (some even serving as given names), and usually only offend when used in their vulgar senses, for example:
cock,
dick,
knob,
muff,
puss,
shag (UK) and
toss (UK).
A borderline category includes words that are euphemistic evasions of «stronger» words, as well as those that happen to be short and have both an expletive sound to some listeners as well as a sexual or excretory meaning (many also have other, non-vulgar meanings):
butt (US),
crud,
darn,
dump,
heck,
poop (US),
slag (UK, NZ, AUS),
slut and
turd, as several examples.
Finally, certain four-lettered terms with limited usage can be considered offensive by some, within the regional dialect in which they are used, such as
mong and
mary.

Occasionally the phrase «four-letter word» is humorously used to describe common words composed of four letters. Typical examples include the word work, implying that work can be unpleasant, or the game of golf, jokingly referred to as a four-letter word when a player’s pastime becomes an exercise in frustration. Charlotte Observer journalist Doug Robarchek noted in 1993 how many politicians have names with four letters, «Ever notice how many U.S. politicians have names that are also four-letter words? Ford, Dole, Duke, Bush, Gore … and how many make us think of four-letter words?»[2]

Similar euphemisms in other languages[edit]

  • Chinese: The term 三字經 (lit. Three Character Classic) is used to describe swearing, as many such phrases in Chinese consist of three characters.
  • Dutch: A similar tradition occurs with «three-letter words», e.g. kut («cunt»/»twat»), pik and lul («cock»/»dick»/»prick»).
  • Finnish: Rude words tend to be five-letter words, like the common swear word perse meaning «arse», or paska meaning «shit». Other offensive five-letter words refer to the genital region, eg. kulli and kyrpä («cock»/»dick»/»prick»), along with pillu and vittu («twat»/»cunt»).
  • French: the word merde («shit») is sometimes referred to as le mot de cinq lettres («the five-letter word»), or le mot de Cambronne. Also, profanities in French are usually called gros mots (coarse words).
  • German: the phrase Setz dich auf deine vier Buchstaben! («sit down on your four letters») is mainly used speaking to children, as it refers to the word Popo, meaning «rump» in baby talk. A variant, Setz dich auf deine fünf Buchstaben! («sit down on your five letters»), alludes to the vulgar use of the word Arsch, meaning «arse» (UK) or «ass» (US).
  • Latin: a common insult used to be Es vir trium litterarum, meaning «you are a man of three letters». The underlying implication was that the addressed was a fur, meaning «thief», although if challenged, the speaker could always claim he simply meant vir, that is, «man».
  • Polish: the word dupa («arse»/»ass») is called cztery litery («the four letters»). Historically, also kiep, which formerly used to be a taboo word meaning «female genitals», but presently is a mild or humorous insult meaning «a fool» or a modern slang term for a cigarette. There is also a phrase Siadaj na cztery litery (sit down on your four letter), meaning sit on your arse.
  • Russian: the word хуй («cock»/»dick»/»prick»), the most common obscenity, is called «the three-letter word» (russ.: «слово из трёх букв») or just «three letters» (russ.: «три буквы») and is one of the key words of the «Russian mat».

      Как-то давно, чтобы развлечь своих студентов, я давала уроки по бранной лексике, по так называемым словам на три буквы. Что ж поделать, бранные слова – это тоже часть языка, и использовать их нужно умело. Причем заметьте, что у нас это слово на три буквы, а у них на четыре, отсюда и выражение — “four letter word”. Дело в том, что многие матерные слова в английском языке состоят из четырех букв. Я не буду их перечислять, если будет интересно, то их можно найти на Википедии.
     Вчера я наткнулась на одно из своих любимых видео, где матерное слово из 5 букв”bitch” играет не последнюю роль. Наверное, вам не надо объяснять, что оно значит. Основной трудностью для студентов, да и для меня всегда было правильно произнести слово beach [biːʧ] (пляж) и не произнести при этом вышеупомянутое bitch [bɪʧ]. Разница ясна, если посмотреть на транскрипции двух слов. Поэтому каждый раз, когда я рассказываю своему другу американцу о своем пляжном отдыхе, я старательно протягиваю звук ea, чтобы не попасть в неловкую ситуацию.
Видео, которое я бы хотела вам показать, рассказывает о том, как ловко можно провести доверчивого британца и сэкономить при этом на покупках. Вопрос, который я оставлю на размышление — А что бы вы сказали на месте главного героя?

В качестве небольшого словаря к видео:

tuna – тунец
lad – парень, юноша
lookalike – одно лицо, двойник

А еще вчера мой друг из Америки выдал такую фразу, увидев экстравагантно одетую, всю в татуировках девушку:
“Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick! Look at this girl!”- сказал он мне. Я переспросила– What? Jumping who?! Он пояснил мне, что это выражение “Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick”означает очень сильное удивление, и посоветовал зайти на сайт Urban Dictionary, чтобы быть в курсе того, какие выражения используются в обыденной современной речи. Вот теперь я изучаю – каждый день по новой идиоме.

А какие интересные выражения знаете вы?

This was the pearl of wisdom a good friend’s mother gave her many years ago after she’d had her first child, when every little thing seemed so weighted and overly important, so much so that she was in a constant state of angst. “Oh honey, life is about letting go,” her wise mother said.

This friend and I were recently discussing the process of letting go and how challenging it is at times. We were each other’s sounding board for some front burner issues we Let Gowere both trying to release.

I’ve come to the conclusion that letting go is one of the hardest things to do in life, proven by the fact that there are literally thousands of books (328,000 in Amazon alone), articles, seminars and schools of thought on the subject of letting go, available to us hangers-on who at times find it nearly impossible to let go.

Sometimes the notion of letting go can get so stuck in my craw that it’s no wonder it took several stabs before finally completing this post. I’m trying to let that go…

Why is it so hard to let go? 

In a Psychology Today article, PhD Judith Sills said, “At its deepest level, the prospect of letting go forces us up against our three strongest emotional drivers: love, fear and rage.”

The attachments we make are based on those drivers as well, and the resulting attachments can be tethered to many trigger points where holding on can feel like the end all, like we’ll never shake the thing that is keeping us stuck. It’s human to form attachments; attachments to the past or to a certain desired outcome or to the fear of a different outcome; or to a person, or the idea of a person such as the picture you have formed in your psyche of your ideal mate.

Sometimes it’s hard to let go of a connection, particularly one that was powerfully formed. Sometimes it’s a memory that links to a painful past event, where you play the scenario over and over again, perhaps wishing for a different set of actions or exchange of dialog.

Or we get stuck on what might have been, if only it had lasted a little longer, or if only the conversation had gone another way, like a promise unfulfilled that we keep trying to fulfill in our mind.

Or we worry about what hasn’t happened yet. Often we have a hard time letting go of the fear of the unknown or fear of the future. Or, because of an “idea or ideal” we have formed about a specific desire, whether it’s a job or relationship, we project that ideal onto something or someone that isn’t the right fit anyway, but we become convinced we can make it work, so we hang on. And hang on. It’s exhausting!

Or we hold onto limiting beliefs that have simply become a habit. These are the what-ifs and the yeah-buts and the when-I-have-this-or-that-it-will-all-start-to-happen or it will then be okay. Sometimes these are the hardest to let go of, the limiting beliefs that effect everything in our lives.

So what is letting go and how do we get there?

Empowerment coach and speaker Andrea Quinn teaches that, “Letting go is all about making room for the something better. To ultimately accomplish anything of value, you must let go of any outcome, any idea about what it’s supposed to look like.”

Author David R Hawkins says in his book, “Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender,” says, “Letting go is a mechanism of surrender, setting us free from emotional attachments.”

To my way of thinking, letting go is the greatest way we can honor ourselves, and the only way to evolve into the best version of ourselves. Letting go means taking back control over our emotions, thoughts and actions.

Because the truth is, the hanging on, the very root of any attachment, is formed in the mind, so the letting go must take place there as well. So, here are some suggestions for changing our thoughts and creating room for a new way of thinking.

  • Surround the situation with compassion and understanding.
  • Forgiveness is paramount – of self and others – for events, actions or words from the past. Release the past to the past.
  • Express gratitude for the lessons learned. Gratitude lightens the load.
  • Stay in the present with right now and remind yourself that all that matters is this moment, right now. Breathe into that.
  • Go cold turkey – force yourself, or allow yourself, to stay away from the topic or situation that’s keeping you in a place of discomfort.
  • Free your attachment to an outcome by not focusing on the endgame, but rather the journey and the juice and joy along the way.
  • Stop judging yourself – give yourself a break for feeling stuck. And give yourself a pat on the back for stepping up for yourself.
  • Write, write and then write some more — sit down and write about the thing you’re hanging onto. Get really detailed about how it makes you feel, describe what it looks like and what your life would be like if that thing, or pain or fixation didn’t exist. Play in that freedom for awhile. Chances are the attachment will loosen and lessen next time you think about it.
  • Talk to someone, whether it’s a friend who can act as a sounding board, or a professional who can help you release what you’re holding onto.

So why is «letting go» a four-letter word?

To my way of thinking, all of the above come down to one underlying and pervading force – Love.

All of these processes involved in letting go couldn’t take place without love. Love is ultimate surrender. With love, you have compassion and forgiveness, which are the keys to the freedom of release. Of letting go. Just think about it. Even pausing and breathing into the words compassion and forgiveness creates of sense of release, of space, of freedom.

Which is why this phrase popped into my head: “Letting go is a four-letter word.”

Believe me there are times when I can think of other four-letter words to associate with not being able to let go!

But, then I know that my work is getting back to this.

Love leads to letting go. Letting go equals love.

So, next time you are trying desperately to let go of something, shed a little love on the subject.

    I never knew of a place to beat Alderson for frustration. It was enough to provoke the girls to use all the four-letter words they did! Remembering my father’s colorful vocabulary, it was occasionally hard for me to refrain from doing likewise. (E. Flynn, ‘The Alderson Story’, ch. XVIII) — Никогда я не видела другого места, столь же отупляющего и гнетущего, как Олдерсон. Недаром наши девушки так щедро осыпали его всеми известными им ругательствами. Вспоминая довольно выразительный лексикон моего отца, я сама порой с трудом удерживалась от крепкого словца.

    To me
    Coming from you
    Friend is a four letter word
    End is the only part of the word
    That I heard
    Call me morbid or absurd
    But to me
    Coming from you
    Friend is a four letter word

    To me
    Coming from you
    Friend is a four letter word
    End is the only part of the word
    That I heard
    Call me morbid or absurd
    But to me
    Coming from you
    Friend is a four letter word

    When I go fishing
    for the words
    I am wishing you would say to me
    I am really only praying that
    The words you’ll soon be saying
    Might betray
    The way you feel about me

    But to me
    Coming from you
    Friend is a four letter word
