2000년 12월 어느날...
미국에서 사촌동생이 재미있는걸 들려주겠다고 했다.
처음 듣는데, 대부분의 내용은 이해하지 못한채 적당히 몇군데의 내용만 들렸다.
그리고 문장의 대부분을 구성한다는 사용 예를 듣고서는 박장대소를 했다.
향후 그때 받아놓은 mp3파일을 어느날 갑자기 공부중에 듣다가
무엇을 말하려는 것인지 전체적으로 다 들리고 만다.
이 내용은 영어단어 fuck의 어원과
그 사용에 대한 것으로
fuck이라는 마술같은 단어의 사용은 너무나 무궁무진 하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
정말 오랜만에 내 하드 깊숙히 있던 파일을 끄집어내서
포스팅해본다.
가사라고 하긴 뭐하지만
위의 내용을 script로 만들어놓으면
아래와 같다.
사실 왠만큼 영어공부 했다면 다 들릴만한 내용이다.. ^^

Perhaps one of the most interesting words in the
English language today is the word 'FUCK.'
Out of all of the English words that begin with the letter "F",
fuck is the only word that is referred to as the "F" word.
Its the one magical word, just by its sound can describe
pain, pleasure, hate and love.
Fuck, as most words in the English language,
is derived from German, the verb "ficken", which means to strike.
In English, fuck falls into many gramatical catagories.
As a transitive verb for instance:
"John fucked Shirley."
As an intransitive verb:
"Shirley fucks."
It's meaning's not always sexual.
It can be used as an adjective such as:
"John's doing all the fucking work."
As part of an adverb:
"Shirley talks too fucking much."
As an adverb enhancing an adjective:
"Shirley is fucking beautiful."
As a noun:
"I don't give a fuck."
As part of a word:
"Abso-fucking-lutely" or "In-fucking-credible"
And, as almost every word in a sentence:
"Fuck the fucking fuckers."
As you must realise there aren't to many words with the versatility of fuck.
As in these examples, describing situations,
such as fraud:
"I got fucked at the used car lot."
Dismay:
"Oh, fuck it."
Trouble:
"I guess I'm really fucked now."
Aggression:
"Don't fuck with me buddy."
Difficulty:
"I don't understand this fucking question."
Inquiry:
"Who the fuck was that?"
Dissatisfaction:
"I don't like what the fuck is going on here."
Incompetence:
"He's a fuck off."
Dismissal:
"Why don't you go outside and play hide and go fuck yourself."
I'm sure you can think of many more examples.
With all of these multipurpose applications,
how can anyone be offended when you use the word?!
We say use this unique, flexible word more often in your daily speech.
It will identify the quality of your character immediately.
Say it loudly and proudly...
"FUCK YOU!"
