About this listen

This podcast is ostensibly for non-native speakers of English to help them navigate the tricky world of swearing in the English language, but is really for anyone interested in swear words, their history and usage. In terms of CEFR ratings, I think B1 upwards, but maybe B2-C2.

Enjoy!
