ABSTRACT

Language is a form of communication. It can be said that the problems associated with language are diverse which means it cut-across cultures and territories. However, I cannot help but wonder how the use of foul languages such as Fuck, ass, shit, hell, have  become the order of the day. The question we should ask ourselves is when was Foul language induced into our diction. Will the review of pain; which symbolizes evil in Jeremy Bentham’s moral philosophy, limit this While our teenagers and youths see foul language as only a form of exclamation, the question is often to what end? This is because it is used when angry, happy and even when frustrated. If our African and moral background condemns this tool of communication as disrespect. How then should a fast growing generation curb it Use on ethics?
