From childhood we were told that swearing is bad, but research has shown that in some situations, profanity helps a person become insensitive to pain and demonstrate good results in power loads. But I would like to note that the use of such abusive words can indicate that a person is hurt and offended. This is a kind of “explosion” of emotions that I don’t want to hide, but I want to get rid of them as soon as possible. So, in the topic of today's publication, we will consider in which cases people use the word "scum". This is a kind of mechanism, the work of which remains to be dealt with.
Body reaction
Physiologists call this reaction of the body “hit or run.” While experiencing moral pain from someone, a person begins to experience a rapid heartbeat and increases the level of adrenaline, which helps reduce the feeling of pain. And you “beat” the word. Moreover, the use of obscene language, as was commonly believed in a cultural society, is in no way associated with a limited vocabulary. So what does “scum” mean?
But honestly, or the meaning of the word
It is interesting that scientists from Maastricht University became interested in the phenomenon of curses. They proved that the use of foul language is an indicator of human honesty. And liars use third-person pronouns or words with negative characteristics. Moreover, people have more faith in a speaker who uses profanity in speech.
So, “scum” is a feminine word, although it is used in relation to both women and men. This expression denotes an extreme degree of hostility towards someone, which defines the attitude towards this person as insignificant and contemptuous. The noun is formed from the adjective "vile". The use of this word indicates a high level of emotions that cause a stronger physical reflex than any other words in response to a person’s action. As you know, curses have always been taboo, and the stronger it was, the more emotional the answer will be.
The word "scum" has several synonyms, such as "rubbish", "insignificance", "bastard."
Swear or not?
The thing is that obscene words are not just insults, this is a special energy message that can destroy a person. And again science comes to the rescue. So, candidate of biological sciences Pyotr Petrovich Goryaev and his colleague Georgiy Georgievich Tertyshny, candidate of technical sciences from the Institute of Control Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences, have developed a special device that reads human speech and puts it into electromagnetic oscillation mode. The results showed that the use of foul language deforms chromosomes, and genes change places, which leads to mutations. So “scum” is not just an obscene word, it is a biological weapon.
