Abstract (en)
Purpose: Swearwords represent an important social vehicle for human communication that, beyond mere insults, are conventionally used for expressing solidarity, bonding, and banter, among other functions. Representing an empirically validated typology of such functions and annotated swearwords in subtitles as Linguistic Linked Open Data (LLOD) provides a rich linguistic research platform for foul language. As a first case study, we classify swearwords in the English subtitles of Bridget Jones’s Diary into twelve unique functions and represent them with OntoLex-Lemon (Cimiano et al., 2016).
