Fuck

Fuck is an English word that, as a verb, means "to have sexual intercourse". It is also a verb that means "to be cheated" ("I got fucked by a scam artist"). As a noun it may describe a contemptible person (also fucker) or a sexual partner. It can be used as an interjection, and it's participle fucking is sometimes used as a strong emphatic. The verb "to fuck" may be used transitively or intransitively, and it appears in compounds, including "fuck off", "fuck up", and "fuck with". In less explicit usages (but still regarded as vulgar), fuck can mean to mess around, or to deal with unfairly or harshly. In a phrase such as "don't give a fuck", the word is the equivalent of "damn", in the sense of something having little value. In "what the fuck", it serves merely as an intensive.
