As for the term used in ethnic slang there is an old joke about that.
Big brother comes in the house and Mother announces "Baby Jethro said a half a word today!"
He did? What did he say?
He said Mother!
For persons not used to strong language entering the military can be quite a shock. I would estimate that more than half the verbage tossed about is needless and habitual swearing. Everything is prefixed with MF or F, GD and anything not specifically labeled is a "pile of S" including most of the people in that general area.
I knew one Special Forces Sgt who when asked if he spoke any languages other than English replied that he was fluent in profanity and vulgarity!
