Is stupid a swear word

Answer 1

Sure, it can be a word. I mean, people use it these days, not very often though. It doesn't sound proper, but whatever, nobody cares. Therefore, it is a word, but it is a little improper. So, just may 'most stupid' or 'dumbest', in order to avoid any conversation starters with the smart.

Ex: That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

Answer 2

All right, let's just dive right into this stupid thing. Recently, a professional athlete was quoted in an article as saying I made the stupidest mistake. The athlete was talking about his personal life-his VERY personal life. (It's hard to keep track these days, isn't it?) The superlative form of stupid is most stupid, as in I made the most stupid mistake, not stupidest. Stupidest can be heard and seen everywhere, but it's wrong. (Please don't ask me to roll out my entire exposition on why finding a word in a modern dictionary doesn't make it legitimate, standard English. Paul and I have already paddled across that ocean several times.) Stupid is just like lucid (same -id ending). The comparative form is more lucid, and the superlative form is most lucid. Likewise, the comparative form of stupid is more stupid, and the superlative form is most stupid. In fact, in general, -id words use more and most instead of -er and -est. (The water was more tepid, he was the most lucid, they could have been more candid, his reflexes have grown more torpid, the milk was the most rancid, his tongue had grown more acrid. No one would even think to say tepidest, lucidest, candidest, torpidest, rancidest, or acridest.) Oddly enough, as many times as I've heard the word stupidest (and believe me, if I sold my soul to the devil in order to have eternal life, that wouldn't be long enough for me to count the number of times that I've heard it over the past few years), I'm not sure that I've ever heard anyone use the word stupider (even though it is now given as an alternative form in some modern dictionaries!). Maybe that's because people know how stupid the word stupidersounds and that the correct form is more stupid. Then why don't they know how stupid stupidest sounds and that the correct form is most stupid? Regardless, the aforementioned athlete may have made the most stupid mistake in his personal life, but he also made a mistake when he used the word stupidest. I hope that we can now lay this stupid grammar error to rest. == ==

Oh, dude, is "stupid" a swear word? Nah, it's more like a PG-13 insult. Like, if you're at a family dinner and you drop a "stupid," Aunt Mildred might give you the side-eye, but it's not gonna get you grounded. Just maybe keep it PG around Grandma.

Answer 4

Well, honey, "stupid" isn't technically a swear word, but it's not the nicest thing to call someone. It's more of an insult than a curse, so use it wisely if you don't want to ruffle any feathers. Just remember, there are plenty of other colorful words in the English language to express your frustration without resorting to name-calling.
