    Unless you’re talking about hell in a religious context, it’s considered a curse word in the English language. [1]
    • Examples of cursing include, "Go to hell!" and "For hell's sake!"
    • Hell can also be used in a casual, conversational way, but it's still considered a swear word in those instances. Someone might say, "Hell if I know" or "It was a hell of a party!"

    That means many people think it’s pretty tame, as far as swear words go. It’s about equal to the word “damn” in terms of offensiveness. [2]
    • A person’s perception of how rude it is often depends on their religious beliefs. [3] Someone who isn't particularly religious may not be bothered by it, while someone who is religious may be offended when you say the word hell.
    • When hell is used as a swear word, it falls under the “blasphemy” category of curse words. Since it refers to a religious topic in a disrespectful way, some religious people feel that it’s a very ugly swear word. [4]

    In many faiths, hell is defined as a bad place where sinners go to be punished, but the word itself isn’t bad to use in religious discussions. So if you’re reading aloud from the Bible, there’s no need to skip over the word. [5]

    In most schools, businesses, and professional settings, saying hell could get you in trouble. It’s considered rude and unprofessional. [6]
    • Saying hell may be overlooked in some places (such as in a football stadium), while it would cause a scene in others (such as a bank). When it comes to swearing, location matters! When in doubt, avoid saying hell in public places. [7]

    Unless you’re very familiar with them and you’re sure they won’t be bothered by swearing, it’s best to choose other words so you don’t cause any trouble. [8]
    • If you’re using the word hell in a joking manner, you risk sending the wrong message and seeming inconsiderate of others. [9]
    • Use “heck” as an inoffensive alternative to saying hell.

    Linguistic (language) experts say a child usually utters their first bad word by age 2, and they develop an adult-like curse word vocabulary by age 12. [19]
    • People use curse words around the globe. The words that are considered “bad” vary according to cultural taboos. In Turkey, cursing someone’s ancestors is extremely offensive! [20]

    • Exposure to slurs is also linked to an increase in depression and anxiety. [22]
    • Slurs are extremely offensive and should not be used. [23]
