USING MORE SWEAR WORDS IS THE SIGN OF A LARGER VOCABULARY
Last year, researchers found that people who use swear words are intelligent. And then earlier this year, the researchers discovered that people who swear are more honest.
Well now, another study has found that using more swear words is a sign of a larger vocabulary.
It seems those who regularly use curse words have a greater general fluency in the English language, making them more articulate. (Independent)
FRECKLES' PICK
SEXY LANGUAGES
Bet you wouldn’t have guessed this ... A survey found that Americans think German and Dutch are the sexiest languages.
Dating site PlentyOfFish analyzed 50 million messages and surveyed hundreds of users in the U.S. They found that women were most attracted to men who speak German as a second language, and men were most attracted to women who could speak Dutch.
And it seems that regardless of the language, singles find people who can speak a second language sexier. Single men were 73% more likely to send a message to a woman who said she could speak a second language, and women were 63% more likely to start a conversation with a man who could speak a second language.
