The term "expletive" usually refers to a bad word, often called a "swear" or a "curse" word. In many newspapers & magazines, there are codes that do not permit bad language (like the swear word that begins with F, jokingly called the "F-bomb") to be written, since seeing bad language supposedly might offend someone, or set a bad example for young people. Thus, newspapers will use a euphemism (a polite way of saying something vulgar), or they will just say the person "uttered an expletive."

In popular songs which feature expletive and/or obscene language, a "clean version" or "radio edit" may be produced omitting such language, sometimes by simply muting the vocal track at such points (for example, the radio edit of Outkast's "The Way You Move"), in other cases by the use of alternate lyrics (Ce Lo Green's "Forget You", the radio-friendly version of his expletive-laden single "F**k You!").
