      I Swear, Going Blue Is Good For You

      Mar 6, 2021

      I SWEAR it’s good for you. And science (proper science, not the home office desk variety) agrees. Profanity. Cussing. Swearing. Many studies point to a few blue words easing pain and frustration, while others suggest people who do it are more honest

      Glossary

      Anaphora

      Figure of diction that consists in repeating one or more words at the beginning of one or more phrases, for sound effect or emphasis.

      Conference

      Dialogue, conversation.

      When standing before an audience of two or more people it is called a public speech; but it is called conference when it implies a dialogue with the spectators.

      It can be carried out by one or several speakers.

      Dialectics

      The art of logical dialogue to summarize an idea by means of using the counterargument of an antithesis opposed to a thesis. This synthesis itself will become the driving force for a new analysis and argument cycle. It can encompass from the simplest idea to the most complex one, from the most elementary thing to totality, from the first cause to the most futuristic synergy, and from the analysis of a basic principle to its ultimate consequences. It does not only seek to answer what and how, but also why and what for, when, how much, how many, where, who and so forth.

      Discourse

      Discourse is to reason about a particular matter.

      A public speech is held before an audience of two or more people.

      Eloquence

      The ability to speak or write effectively to please, move or persuade.

      Euphemism

      Substituting a term or phrase which has unpleasant or improper connotations for more decorous or non-offensive ones.
