Many expressions have become an integral part of everyday speech, although if you ask a contemporary about the true meaning of spoken words, he will think deeply. For most, "bullshit" is any nonsense told by the interlocutor. The definition is capacious, sonorous, it perfectly expresses the speaker’s attitude to the discussion, indicates a clear absence of arguments from the other side. And still it is not clear: when and how did the expression arise?
Russian version
There is an assumption of rapprochement with the word "alien", otherwise - "alien". Words that are spoken in a foreign language are completely incomprehensible to the audience. Or understandable, but inherently so meaningless, insane that the mind refuses to perceive them.
Another option is considered regional "nonsense", which also means nonsense, absurdity. Or "pig" - a shrill piglet, which with its loud sounds does not contribute at all to a productive discussion.
German origin
Fasmer made bolder conclusions and drew an analogy with the German Stuss, as well as a German-Jewish synonym with a similar spelling:
nonsense;
stupidity, madness.
Despite the fact that the meaning of the word "nonsense" is as close as possible to such an interpretation, philologists doubt this version. Which option to stick to is your choice. Both of them seem logical and do not affect perception at all.
Modern decryption
In what situations does the sonorous term appear in all its glory? When you need to express to others your attitude:
The word sounds extremely rude, even offensive. It implies that all arguments and arguments cited earlier have no basis, and even if they are based on facts, they are absolutely useless in a specific conversation, have nothing to do with the topic. Usually pronounced in the desire to interrupt a long tirade or even complete the dialogue.
Relevance of use
Keeping the word “bullshit” in your vocabulary is normal? It completely depends on the situations in which you find yourself. The concept is not the most flattering, since its importance affects not only the topic of conversation, but also the opponent’s ability to think logically. It is filled with negative connotation, it penetrates into speech at the peak of negative emotions, demonstrates that your patience is over and there is no desire to continue to participate in the farce.
Use it is only as a last resort, if you do not want to offend the interlocutor. Not suitable for public communication, official negotiations. Talking with loved ones will also be excessive, indicating neglect and distrust of the actions, words and thoughts of a person.
