Compose a 1750 words assignment on linguistic reclamation: rough draft. Needs to be plagiarism free! The word “fuck” is one of the few words in the English language that can be used as a verb, noun, pronoun, adverb, adjective, et cetera. This shows that, despite its original meaning, it does not have a solid one now. It is a word that is merely used to exaggerate how something is. The origin of the word “fuck” is hard to trace as there are so many stories and myths behind its derivation. The most common of these myths is that “fuck” was an acronym for “Fornication Under the Consent of the King” and “Forced Unlawful Carnal Knowledge.” As “fuck” predated the introduction of acronyms, it is assumed that it did not start as an acronym, but as a real word with a definite meaning. “prick,” “penetrate,” and “puncture.” During its jump from tongue to tongue, “fuck” finally reached Americans and first meant any variation of sexual intercourse – so it stayed true to its native tongue, though now it had a more detailed definition. Now, however, it has become taboo to us, a profane word with numerous meanings, though they are all rude or sarcastic. Oddly enough, “fuck” is still staying true to its original self, as it became more taboo with each tongue that it was passed to. I feel that it would be difficult to try to reclaim a word that has never had a solid meaning. Furthermore, people have found many uses in such a small word. “Fuck” can be used in almost any way, to describe almost anything. It would be difficult, if not entirely impossible, to separate the word from its many meanings. As “fuck” can be viewed as the word to use when no other words can possibly describe the situation, it should remain what it is today. It is for that matter that I also feel that, while it cannot be reclaimed, it can at least not be viewed as so offensive, as in most situations it is not used offensively. “Fuck” is a word that is hard to contemplate.&nbsp.
