Fuck, it has been suggested, may have a sprung from the Latin futuo, the French foutre or the German f...you know, all of which have the same meaning. The word first appears in print in 1503 in a poem by the Scottish poet William Dunbar. Although fuck has been around for centuries, for a long period it fell out of general use. Before 1503, the vulgar word for sex was to swive. BTW Fuck it was suggested, was originally a police blotter acronym standing for "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge". After O.K fuck must be about the most versatile of all English words. More variation Fuck up Fuck around Fucking-A Fubb I'm fucking if I know snafu
@Lightwarrior K.Y. Today the worst swear words in English are probably fuck, shit, and cunt. But until about the 1870s it was much more offensive to be profane. God damm, Jesus, and even Hell were worse than fuck and shit
