Today Jean Gross, who advises the Government on children's speech, said urgent action was required to prevent children failing to find jobs because they are unable to communicate.

I stopped in a local Pub the other day and a 20-something was there whose vocabulary seemed limited to using the f-word at least twice in each 'sentence.'

I heard one drop it in the middle of a word.

I've heard a Scotsman demonstrate real prowess with the F-word. Variants of the word were employed as a noun (sentence object), verb, adverb, adjective and simple expletive. It's amazingly versatile. Some people would be speechless without it.
