The word smut means: a small flake of soot or dirt; indecent or obscene talk, writing, or pictures; a disease of cereals caused by a fungus, in which parts of the ear change to black powder; to mark with smuts; to infect with smut.

It is derived from low German Schmutt (modern German Schmutz - dirt)
