  • Values shown are per 1,000 tweets rather than per 1,000 population.
  • Data are based on an analysis of roughly 1.7 million geotagged English‑language tweets, where researchers removed extra words and duplicate users, then counted how often swear words appeared per location to rank which countries swear most.
  • As the data focused upon English-language tweets, it is conceivable that the level of swearing could be impacted by the level of English fluency in a given country, with lower-fluency countries appearing to swear less.
