Wait, did I understand correctly that he quoted the word "nigger" instead of saying "n-word" when talking about words used in comedy and this is considered taboo?
I'm not a native speaker, so please bear with me: is this really considered not acceptable?
- truthisunpc 8y agoYes, you must say "n-word" or use asterisks like n* unless you are black.
- ChronosKey 8y agoOpinions differ on the matter. While I think you should be able to quote the word, I understand that not everyone feels the same way, and so I never say the full word because I don't want to unintentionally offend anyone. I don't feel strongly enough about my opinion to say the word regardless of other people's opinions.
