Everyone knows you are not allowed to swear in primary school. At home we don't swear because our mum is against it and we are not used to it. This year I started High School. I thought that the difference between high school and primary school would be the changing classes and the older people. That was not the only difference. The week I started, the only thing I could hear were 'beep, beep, beep, chitchat, talktalk and swear, swear, swear'. (The beep, beep was a mobile phone.) I was shocked when I heard people swearing. Even in class there were people swearing including the teachers. I thought the teachers would stop them. I told my mum and she told me to ignore it. That is what I did. In my family no-one swears. I have never even said s-h-u-t u-p. I have to spell it on this. My friend just came from Taiwan and she doesn't know much english. She came last year. This year she has started talking English with swear words. Her mum is very annoyed. That is for culture shock, at least for me!
Any such experiences for any of you out there?

I accept, swear words should be banished from the English language. When I first moved to an English based country I was upset all my colleagues were using swear words. I then banned them from using swear words. F should only stand for friendship, faithful, funny and fun-tast-tick!!
Don't worry Sriyum... We just have to be more mature and ignore the swear words... Their parents probably didn't teach them well enough.
Such a mature and cute post!
