| Summary: | In this chapter, we provide an account of antipodean swearing patterns, drawing on examples from existing written and spoken data banks. As part of this investigation, we consider general questions to do with swearing: what it is, why speakers do it and how swearing patterns have changed over the years. We identify four overlapping functions of swearing: the expletive, abusive, social and stylistic functions. We also consider the shift in social attitudes toward swearing and the repercussions of this for the law. Swearing has always been characterized as an earmark of Australian and New Zealand English. We conclude that it remains an important feature of these varieties, but question just how uniquely antipodean it is. |

| 520 | |a In this chapter, we provide an account of antipodean swearing patterns, drawing on examples from existing written and spoken data banks. As part of this investigation, we consider general questions to do with swearing: what it is, why speakers do it and how swearing patterns have changed over the years. We identify four overlapping functions of swearing: the expletive, abusive, social and stylistic functions. We also consider the shift in social attitudes toward swearing and the repercussions of this for the law. Swearing has always been characterized as an earmark of Australian and New Zealand English. We conclude that it remains an important feature of these varieties, but question just how uniquely antipodean it is. | ||

As part of this investigation, we consider general questions to do with swearing: what it is, why speakers do it and how swearing patterns have changed over the years. We identify four overlapping functions of swearing: the expletive, abusive, social and stylistic functions. We also consider the shift in social attitudes toward swearing and the repercussions of this for the law. Swearing has always been characterized as an earmark of Australian and New Zealand English. We conclude that it remains an important feature of these varieties, but question just how uniquely antipodean it is.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">English language</subfield><subfield code="z">Australia</subfield><subfield code="x">Grammar.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">English language</subfield><subfield code="z">New Zealand</subfield><subfield code="x">Grammar.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Grammar, Comparative and general.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056260</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Language and culture.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85074514</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Anglais (Langue)</subfield><subfield code="z">Australie</subfield><subfield code="x">Grammaire.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Grammaire comparée et générale.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Langage et culture.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">English language</subfield><subfield code="x">Grammar</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Grammar, Comparative and general</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Language and culture</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Australia</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39QbtfRv8PPH7gCqhkJ8DK8bM</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">New Zealand</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39QbtfRmXBg7mpKX7p4DJ8Kqp</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Electronic book.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Peters, Pam.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Collins, Peter,</subfield><subfield code="d">1950-</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n87938951</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Smith, Adam</subfield><subfield code="q">(Adam Michael)</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2009019998</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Comparative studies in Australian and New Zealand English (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCH46wMDkdhQ4GrvC6FKPQq</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="t">Comparative studies in Australian and New Zealand English.</subfield><subfield code="d">Amsterdam ; Philadelphia : John Benjamins Pub.

Conclusions: Larger evolutionary trends in AusE, NZE and world English -- References -- Index -- The series Varieties of English Around the World. In this chapter, we provide an account of antipodean swearing patterns, drawing on examples from existing written and spoken data banks. As part of this investigation, we consider general questions to do with swearing: what it is, why speakers do it and how swearing patterns have changed over the years. We identify four overlapping functions of swearing: the expletive, abusive, social and stylistic functions. We also consider the shift in social attitudes toward swearing and the repercussions of this for the law. Swearing has always been characterized as an earmark of Australian and New Zealand English. We conclude that it remains an important feature of these varieties, but question just how uniquely antipodean it is. English language Australia Grammar. English language New Zealand Grammar.
