35 Mike
:
“I’ll hot this fool.”
Marcus : “Calm down”
00.07.05-00.08.00
This dialogue is about Mike who gets angry because Marcus is caught by one of the culprits. The culprit points his head with a gun. Mike is trying to save
Marcus by threatening and pointing them with a gun too. He keeps showing his power as a police officer in front of the culprits. There is
“incinerating trash” uttered by Mike to the culprits. That is included into taboo or obscenities because
it looks down on someone as if they are like “trash”. There are motherfuckers and
this fool too which are used to address the culprits. Motherfucker is considered sexual terms which is not normally used to call someone and it is also an offensive
word. This fool also becomes an offensive phrase when it is used to name someone because it makes himher afflicted.

: What the fuck What are you doing, man?
Marcus : That’s my bad.

The dialogue above takes place in the scene when Marcus shoots Mike’s
car dashboard accidentally. Mike is surprised and angry because it is his favorite expensive car. Then, he swears
“What the fuck” which is considered taboo or obscene sentence. There is four-letter-word
“fuck” in the sentence which is a sexual term. It is not usually used in general public since its meaning is
copulation. 8
Marcus : “I’m just trying to help, okay?” Mike
:
“You know what’d be fucking helpful, Marcus? Just shut the fuck up
and let me drive. Let’s try that.

This conversation between Mike and Marcus takes place when they fight each other in the car. Marcus is afraid of Mike who drives his car at high speed.
This really disturbs Mike’s concentration so he swore at Marcus. “Fucking
helpful ” is a phrase which is not normally used in the society since “fucking”, the
modifier, is related to sexual term. It is considered taboo or obscene. “Shut the
fuck up ” contains “fuck” although it is used in different part of speech as the
sentence before.
9 Mike
:
“Dan Marino should definitely buy this car. But not his one.
I’m fucking this one up but definitely one like this.
” 01.25.28-01.25.35
The obscene word is also found in this monologue. This is about Mike’s
awe toward Dan Marino’s car which he borrowed to chase the mission target. However, he uses fucking in his sentence categorized as obscenity. It is still in this
category because it also has sexual term in its meaning.
