Sweary is an R package that contains a database of swear words from different languages, cherry picked by native speakers.
The development version of this package can be installed using devtools:
devtools::install_github("pdrhlik/sweary")
| Language | Language code | Number of swear words | | --------------- | ------------- | --------------------- | | Czech | cs | 57 | | German | de | 99 | | English | en | 39 | | French (Canada) | fr-CA | 20 | | Greek | gr | 13 | | Macedonian | mk | 64 | | Polish | pl | 41 | | Romanian | ro | 38 | | Slovak | sk | 28 | | Total | 9 langs | 399 |
All languages are stored in a swear_words
data frame.
library(sweary)

## <chr> <chr>
## 1 buzerant cs
## 2 čubka cs
## 3 čurák cs
## 4 čůrák cs
