This is probably an irrelevant comment as I am sure you have already found an appropriately colorful replacement for f***, but I thought I would throw in my two coppers regardless.
Vulgar Latin:
Futuō - F***
Futuere - to F***
or as another alternative, Greek:
Gama mou - F*** me
Ay gamisou - F*** off
Whenever I need inspiration I know I tend to look to classical linguistic forms, maybe it will be a help, maybe not.
Fuck comes from the German word Fricken which means to strike. Fricken has also been shortened down to Frick. I would suggest Frack, but you already ruled Frack out so how about Fraggled or Smurfed or F'd or Fazed or Fitzed. The last one is my favorite being that my last name is Fitzgerald. Irish Pride all the way!
Frak! You can't say frel on the frikking internet? What piece of fei-yu made that happen?
I say find a harmless word, and use it as a euphemism that will someday become a dirty word. Ya know, like how a 100 years ago a man would have been proud to show his cock in public.
Take something that's applicable though... hehe, vulcan mind hug.. Oh! Something harmless, like "hugs"! That'd work. Or work.
In all honesty, the actual word itself doesn't matter. It is the connotation and usage that will define it. The reason words like 'frik' work, is that people say them in the same situation with the same emotion as they would its counterpart. Any word will do so long as it is said with feeling at the opportune moment.
Hi there! For the potential translation of f*boing* into another potential sci-fi word, well, I've went to an FF10's Al-Bhed translator and it ends up as ''Vilg'' which I think sounds sci-fi enought! Problem is, it does come from a fictionnal language from a video game, so it's not really an ''original'' word, but, well, maybe it will lead to a good word for f*boing*
Save the world eh? Alrighty, I'll go read up on solar hot water heaters. My folks planted 100 trees when I was 4 to help offset the family carbon footprint.
As for the swears, I would like to suggest gak. I haven't worked on my conlang for a while. Like you said, if only a few people use it, momentum for its demise picks up.
*melts and swoons* She called me awesome!? Okay more serious. The petition, several points good, some the writer of the petition seems to be formed with a lack of information. Strong message though, one that I look for in any government platform. Ecological reform, and properly implemented a strong ecological reform will create more jobs and help economic reform as well.
Sign the petition, force studies, educated the populace. Advanced the world. A Golden age of Green sounds quite becoming.
Watched it. I must say I am incredibly unimpressed. His main argument was Appeal to Authority which is one of the logical fallacies. It also ignores periods of time which have nothing to do with human activity such as the Medieval Warm Period and Holocene Climate Optimum (in which it was MUCH warmer)
Man made emissions account for a whopping 0.28% of greenhouse gasses. Water vapor accounts for the majority of the rest. It is about the height of arrogance to believe we can frell the planet
Appeal to authority is only a logical fallacy if it exists by means of "I'm in a position of authority, so I'm right". Otherwise it is a genuine arguementative technique. Hell, if you consider anything drawing on authority as a logical fallacy, then the academic principle of quoting sources is a logical fallacy.
I am NOT a meteorologist, and so any attempt I make to argue a point about climate will be laden with inconsistencies and mistakes. I'll be reduced to quoting bite sized morsels of information I've heard in arguements about all this before, without anything to back it all up, really. All I CAN do is trust to expert knowledge, and from what I've read most of the expert knowledge believes it.
And, as Wonderingmind's pascal's wager example showed, it makes logical sense to prepare, just in case.
Sorry Zendulo. P4A is STILL promoting Anthropogenic Global Warming. Its been cooling off for the last ten years despite increased emissions from us humans. If they get AGW wrong, with 10 full years of science directly contradicting them, how can anyone trust them to do right on anything else?
John Ringo uses 'grap' in his Through the Looking Glass series. I know why he uses it and other words like it. Even so, I'm offended by the use of swearing replacements, muting, blurring of lips, and beeping. If you're saying or doing anything that can be executed with a simple 'fuck', then you are still swearing, just in an extremely childish, transparent manner. If you don't like swearing, don't use pretend swearing, just don't let anger into your speech. Fuck! On the Internet!
My screen name is consistent with my reasoning and is an intentional crass and self-abasing joke, where as anyone saying, perhaps, figgleshits instead of shit because they dislike cursing needs to examine what they are doing. They may not think it, but they are still cursing. It's similar to a child cursing with a word they have no denotation for, while the adult tries to remove the denotation from the meanings they want to express. In that way, the adult is trying to achieve childhood cursing.
Oh YEAH! And I think you look GREAT.......LMAO, nah Z, I ain't gonna join da "Gettin sweet on Z" train. Although I think G4 should give you a spot on the Feed, the chick they got on there is so un-layla-ish!
I wish our most excellent legislators would enact a law abolishing all styrofoam products! This would be immensely beneficial to the environment and wouldn't change much, except an increase in whining from lazy troopz.
Kay as often happens mah sound is forked up on this piece so I can't actually hear the dulcet tones of Miss Shayna. Howevers I can clearly see the golden key to the promised land and therefore blindly support this message. That is a key right? And I am thinking about the environment and NOT boobies. Seriously boobies are icky.
Just had another thought. For a futuristic sci-fi you could always say cockney rhyming slang has picked up around the world. The first site that came up when I googled it recommended the following for fuck:
Bit o' luck "I had a bit of luck last night"
Donald Duck "I don't give a Donald"
For "fuck it", Charlie Bucket. "Oh Charlie Bucket."
My gf figured out how to make my digital camera record video so I can start making 'em when she gets back into town. It has pretty decent resolution so, depending on how much room my memory card allows for and how big of a memory card capacity I can get for it, I may be able to make some cool stuff finally.
I dunno, I kinda like things like frak and frag, but those are pretty common alternatives to fuck. As for something totally awesome and sci-fi-esque that's semi-original I can't really think of anything, I mean, it's become so linguistically versatile in the english language, it's hard to construct a series of phonetics that sounds equally appropriate in as many instances as fuck can be used. You may have to use several different words depending on how it's being used for it to sound right.
Frickin' (adj), "a kinder, gentler alternative to the term "f*cking"; used as an intensifier...
featured in the song Merry Merry Merry Fricken Christmas... worth a listen to imo. Nothing original coming to mind at the moment though but I will keep thinking.
Zen- great video. I just wandered in from G4 (dvr'ed forever ago) and saw your particularly awesome brand of Nerdwareness. Kudos on the petition and here's a suggestion for the f-bomb: keep it short and similar in pronunciation. Maybe start it with a 'p' or an 'f.' I'd go with something like "peck" (which has the added bonus of being Mad Martigan's derogatory term of choice for Willow). And you have to admit that "peck off" has a nice ring to it. =)
Wow. I didn't think it was possible for nerdiness to do this, but "laser-Tarkined" broke my brain. Rock on, Shayna. Rock on.
As for the petition, done and done. There's some other things that need to be on there (nuclear power, for instance), but it's a start. Thanks for doing this.
Replace poles with non-melt replica polystyrene snow.
Replace endangered species such as tigers, pandas etc. with long-life robotic replicas, with integral "double fun" features such as funny sound effects and Silly String dispensers.
Relocate rain forests to the moon, thereby putting them out of reach of greedy timber merchants.
Implement "shoot-on-sight" enforcement of existing environmental laws.
Flicka? Wasn't that the name of some horse? LOL. Glad to see my favorite sexy nerd back on YouTube! We miss you! We need more talented people from nerdfighteria on here, anyway!
For the latter cause of an expletive by other motives: Verjz. Brokedown, Ver is pronounced like verge, and jz is a sharp Z! as in Zit. If you have an audio preview or software, run the word through it. Merry ChanKwanzmas and a Tricky New Years!!
You could use the Father Ted approach (its an English comdey show from way back in the 1990's) and use the word Feck or use Red Dwarf's own Smeg. It's not technically swearing, but people would know what you meant.
I didn't know you were a Nerdfighter! Well, I knew you were a Nerdfighter, but I didn't know that you knew...yeah, I'm going to shut up now (except to say that I love your videos).
Frag. Transformers used it (ok mostly durring beastwars and everything made after but the orginal searies used it a few times) Also some other Mech and giant robot related shows have used it, becides it can be used just like the fbomb and be almost as releaving.
I found myself getting drawn back to the whole frak, felgercarb mindset and thusly settled on a play on the whole " your name is Mudd" idea where a common name becomes profane due to some perfidious act
In general it's better to keep the swearing down low. Not out of fear of offending people, but just so it has some impact. Remember the only time Shepherd Book used Chinese in Serenity? THAT had gravitas.
But if you need to, a good option is either:
A) Have it interupted every time. "Oh fu-" "What's the matter?"
B) Something that starts off soft or semi-soft (fu-) and ends hard (-ck). "Rutt", "Yud", "Sut", "Mock", "Lach", etc. That way it has the same impact as good old 'fuck'.
it was nice to catch some of your other and more serious intrest. for vernacular, try the hubert approach of ''situation exclamatory,'' well not really. take care.
dident read it thought witch is probly a bad think cuz i dont care about the enviorment there enogh enviorment for me in my liftime so ill let others and the future take care of the rest
at my school teachers r super no swearing so if u even say hell u get detention so for fuck we say frick and for some bizarre reason the teachers don't care so frick might work frick or hack one of those would work
well i know you can get reported on some websites for saying it but some are OK with the word. plus if you hadn't noticed how there not aloud to say it on TV so you cant say it on a you tube post either or it will get taken off or censored.
That is an awesome petition. I love flowers and plants so this means a lot too me. As for your script, in the novel I have been working on for oh about 7 years, I don't want them to be vulgar to the high extent. So I decided to create an entire language for them seeing as they exist on a far off planet. For the F word I wanted to stay with a 4 letter word so I made it erun. (the u is emphasized so it sounds like air-rune.) That is my suggestion.
so it was pretty cool how you went from all awesome glowy to awesome emo and then back to awesome glowy.
i love how serenity used chinese(?) for those naughty words that seem to slip in every so often. but a favorite of bine is fubar, which unfortunately only works for military/space marine lingo. you could go the way of Hot Fuzz and the like and use semi famous old cartoon quotes. By the power of Grey Skull! although having characters say "snarf" might take away from the dialog...
It's kewl to have freinds involved in things like this. Down here in AZ(with the Entings), we have a lot of environmental warfare going on between special interests, tribes, and non-profit orgs. I don't know where they find the energy...or the time.
How about you say Fred instead... And can have this whole bit in your story about how nobody is name Fred anymore, because the name became a bad word.
I like how you (Z) are using your influence....Haha, yeah the force, to gather support for this issue, of course I would sign! Alderon?......Just give me a fictional/dimensional/time portal to Tumladen when the light of the trees was in flower!!
i love how you are consistantly awsome. ive ended up saying frak alot too. yeah, i like battlestar galactica. i know only 2 other people that like sci-fi (i feel so alone). i love you. in a totally non creepy way, i promis.

Frag. Transformers used it (ok mostly durring beastwars and everything made after but the orginal searies used it a few times) Also some other Mech and giant robot related shows have used it, becides it can be used just like the fbomb and be almost as releaving.
Then you could also use Slag as your Sbomb!

I found myself getting drawn back to the whole frak, felgercarb mindset and thusly settled on a play on the whole " your name is Mudd" idea where a common name becomes profane due to some perfidious act
Loves ya kiddo! Keep posting.
spacecowboy7591 3 years ago
In the dark days following the
nuclear conflagration; a new profane term came into common usage.
It was coined from the name of the man who pushed the button during his last days in office:
Dubya I:E If you hit that too hard you are gonna dubya everything up!
or: I hate Bob; he is a mother dubber
or Dubya yerself!
or: Hey! Dubya face!
Of course, this is offered free of any obligation to use it.

In general it's better to keep the swearing down low. Not out of fear of offending people, but just so it has some impact. Remember the only time Shepherd Book used Chinese in Serenity? THAT had gravitas.
But if you need to, a good option is either:
A) Have it interupted every time. "Oh fu-" "What's the matter?"
B) Something that starts off soft or semi-soft (fu-) and ends hard (-ck). "Rutt", "Yud", "Sut", "Mock", "Lach", etc. That way it has the same impact as good old 'fuck'.

Or, if you want to have an in-joke you can use the word 'count', in a reference to the Youtube video "The Song of the Count"

Oh, and any celebration that doesn't involve Jelly (or Jello as you call it in America) is a celebration not worth having.

It should. Shock is a shocking great swear. It is almost as much fun as using "smurf" for a swear.
"I shocking shocked the hell out of her last night"
"No shocking way"
"Shock yeah."

well i know you can get reported on some websites for saying it but some are OK with the word. plus if you hadn't noticed how there not aloud to say it on TV so you cant say it on a you tube post either or it will get taken off or censored.

That is an awesome petition. I love flowers and plants so this means a lot too me. As for your script, in the novel I have been working on for oh about 7 years, I don't want them to be vulgar to the high extent. So I decided to create an entire language for them seeing as they exist on a far off planet. For the F word I wanted to stay with a 4 letter word so I made it erun. (the u is emphasized so it sounds like air-rune.) That is my suggestion.

so it was pretty cool how you went from all awesome glowy to awesome emo and then back to awesome glowy.
i love how serenity used chinese(?) for those naughty words that seem to slip in every so often. but a favorite of bine is fubar, which unfortunately only works for military/space marine lingo. you could go the way of Hot Fuzz and the like and use semi famous old cartoon quotes. By the power of Grey Skull! although having characters say "snarf" might take away from the dialog...

It's kewl to have freinds involved in things like this. Down here in AZ(with the Entings), we have a lot of environmental warfare going on between special interests, tribes, and non-profit orgs. I don't know where they find the energy...or the time.

Also, Marvel took a stab at fraking the F word with "Shock" in it's "2099" titles.
"What the shock is that?"
"It's spider-man 2099!"
...and we wonder why that's not around anymore.
