Why does nobody use the word "arse" any more?

[Swisskit]

So fed up with seeing "ass" everywhere instead.

Arse is a bloody brilliant word! I'm going to start a campaign to keep it alive #arse

Love arse. Use this word at least 10 times daily. And “bottoms”. Shite is great too.

Every time I see "ass" I change it in my head to "arse"

Me too! I also change "sweater" to "jumper" any time I see that.

I still use arse. DS said it for the first time in my presence yesterday too. I was torn between annoyed and amused (he's 19 and never swears in front of me, although I am sure he swears like a sailor at work and with friends).

Love arse. Use it lots. Isn’t ass the American version of arse?

I usually say arse but probably use asshole as an insult more than arsehole. Asshole just sounds more viscious in my accent.

I don’t use cunt as an insult because it sounds crap in my accent. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes yes yes. Ive been campaigning for proper british swearing for a few years now. People Assing and sucking all over the place ant allowed in my house.

I use arse all the time. In fact, I’ve just (mentally) called a man on the bus an arse because that is exactly what he was being.

I’m Irish. The word ass is not in my vocabulary apart from referring to donkeys. Arse, gobshite, bollocks etc.

We say arse, not ass, in this house! Derived from Old English ærs, which is the way I would pronounce it in Scotland. In Germany we say Arsch, which is pleasingly guttural.

Said a lot in central Scotland.

About 5 minutes ago I told my giggly 20 year old DS to stop being an arse, and be quiet after he got back from the pub, because DD is sleeping and has work tomorrow. I use it all the time.

My Mums favourite expression was that she couldn’t be arsed...love it 💕

Arse is alive in my household. No donkeys anywhere.

I say arse lots - especially when Johnson some far-right loon appears on the news. It is an awesome word.

Father Jack would be proud 'aaaaarse'!

I always use arse. Never ass.

It’s really funny but I never say arse .lol
I say absolutely far worse words .😬😬😬

Definitely Arse.

Ass is a donkey creature.

Bloody Americans.

I love a good ‘your arse!!!’ in reply to something someone has said that’s clearly not true.

‘I could eat that whole pizza’
‘Your arse!!!!’

Why is that even a thing? Sounds so strange now I’ve written it.

I say it, I write it.
Arse.

If it was good enough for Father Jack....

The first time DH and I slept together 20 odd years ago, I got out of bed and as I walked away towards the door, he exclaimed "arse!" In a Father Jack style.

Thing is at that point I'd never seen Father Ted so I was a bit WTF?

He still does it now, bless him

Arse is such a satisfying word
Ass isn’t it
Ass sounds like you are being polite
When I say arse...I’m definitely not being polite

Hadaway and shite
Very comforting that

And there’s nothing like a good bastard ..when anything or anyone upsets you.

No idea who father jack is

It’s Ricky Tomlinson saying my arse
I remember
Royle family..great show

Barely a sentence passes my lips, that does include the word, Arse.
