There is no language in the world that is completely free of abuses or foul language. Every language has developed some or the other abusive or vulgar vocabulary over time. Some languages ​​have plenty of abuses, which are mostly sexual. Some languages ​​have less of them. But from English to Italian and Spanish, sexual and sexual abuses are abundant. Hindi is also not less. In such a situation, if it is said that there is a language which is very polite and decent, where there are no sexual and sexual abuses, then you will be surprised. This is true.

This language is the ancient Sanskrit language, which is still spoken and read. Sanskrit is called a classical language. There may be some harsh words in Sanskrit. But there are harsh words like insulting words but there is not a single abuse in this language. Some people say that the word Varn Sankar in Sanskrit is an abuse but linguists reject it. Why they do so, is mentioned later.

The language of the culture is considered polite and pure.

Other languages, especially spoken languages, contain more explicit abuses, physical or sexual references, which are not commonly found in Sanskrit. This is because Sanskrit was developed and preserved by scholars and pundits who tried to keep it pure and polite as a "devbhasha". It is simply very subtle and restrained.

You will not find dirty and obscene words

Sanskrit is generally considered a very refined and pure language. Unlike modern languages, it is difficult to find clear and everyday swear words in it, such as are easily found in Hindi, English or other spoken languages. You will hardly find a list of “dirty” or “obscene” words in a Sanskrit dictionary, because it is mostly used in formal and polite contexts.

Scholars from India and abroad have praised

Sanskrit language since ancient times for its elegance, sophistication and beauty. It has been honoured by calling it “Devbhasha” (language of the gods) and “the most refined language in the world”. It has been praised for its grammatical structure, sweetness of sounds, depth of words and power of expression.

Philosophers like Bhartrihari said, “Sanskritam naam daivai vaaganvaakhyata” (Sanskrit is the divine speech that has appeared in a refined form). The sounds of Sanskrit (vowels and consonants) are considered musical and soft. The purity of its alphabet and pronunciation makes it gentle and graceful to listen to.

Foreign scholar William Jones said in the 18th century, "Sanskrit has a wonderful structure, which is more perfect than Greek, richer than Latin, and more refined than both the languages."

Texts written in Sanskrit such as Vedas, Upanishads, Mahabharata, and Ramayana are famous for the dignity and decency of their language. Even in contexts like war or anger, the dignity of the language is maintained. UNESCO has also honored it by calling it a “cultural heritage of humanity”.

The lack of profanity or obscenity in Sanskrit and its emphasis on courtesy make it graceful. Insults are also expressed with sarcasm or subtlety and not with harsh words. Western scholars like Max Muller said, "Sanskrit literature has the power to elevate the human

mind and its grace makes it unique." Indian scholar and linguist Suniti Kumar Chatterjee called it "the most refined and graceful language in the world", which binds literature, science and philosophy together.

Differences from modern swear words

in modern languages ​​are often associated with body parts, sexuality or obscenity, but this is rarely seen in Sanskrit, as the language was bound by the cultural and moral norms of the time.

Does Urdu have abuses?

Yes, Urdu has abuses, as almost every living language does. Though Urdu is known to be a poetic and graceful language, it also has abusive or derogatory words and expressions in everyday speech. “Kamina” (worthless or vile), “Harami” (illegitimate or wicked), and “Bewakoof” (stupid) are such words. Many abuses are related to body parts or family, such as “Suar ki aulaad” (pig offspring) or “Kute ka bachcha” (dog offspring). The abuses in Urdu vary by region. For instance, Lucknow Urdu is polite, while Karachi or Delhi Urdu may have a bit of harsh abuses.

Which languages ​​lead in swearing

is an interesting question, but it is a complicated one to answer because it is difficult to measure the "most" amount of sexual or gender-related slurs in any language.

– Sexual and sexual slurs are very common in English, especially in spoken language. The global nature of English and pop culture (movies, music) have made these slurs widely spread.

– Sexual slurs are also common in Spanish.

– The Russian language has a whole category called “мат” (mat) full of obscene and sexual slurs.

– Arabic also has sexual slurs.
