Why do so many swear words involve topics like sex, bodily functions or the divine? Why do some childrens names thrive while others fall out of favour? Why do we threaten and bribe and seduce in such elaborate, often comical ways? How can a choice of metaphor damn a politician or start a war? And why do we rarely say what we actually mean?
