Hey!!!!

Hey. What's up?
I have some questions about American and British people. What are (are is used for a plural subject, you mentioned differences, which is a plural, so use are instead of a; if you were looking for one difference, you would say "Name a difference") the differences between them? I mean differences about their culture and accent, or even their behavior? I find the way they talk weird  because I don't really know their language etiquette. Allow me to explain.  I am Iranian. We are very sensitive regarding the way we speak. For example,  you can't use some rude words or phrases while you are speaking. However, when I watch American movies, they use these words easily, even in irrelevant situations. I don't mean that they are rude. I just can't understand whether it is OK to use these kinds of words while speaking with people. I  hope you can understand me. Lol.

 

I think in US and British culture, there is nothing wrong with using swear words in certain situations. For example, when with good friends. It depends on who you are with, though, and whether they also commonly use such language. What would be considered rude (I think in any culture) is when those words are directed as insults or sarcasm against those you are with, rather than as simple conversation, jokes or animated descriptions. Personally, I think well placed swear words add color and soul to a conversation, but the company present needs to be considered carefully. Some people are more sensitive than others to the use of swear words.
