Confusing old and new meaning of the term

I think there's a major systemic confusion between the modern "vulgar", meaning "offensive", and the archaic "vulgar", meaning "colloquial" or "informal". A lot of older terms, including virtually everything from the 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue, have been misidentified as offensive, when in fact they're just colloquialisms. — This unsigned comment was added by 65.97.28.200 (talk) at 03:42, 27 December 2005 (UTC).

Some of these should be categorized as interjections

Would it not be correct to categorize some of these terms under the interjections hierarchy? Should this apply only to swearwords? __meco 15:05, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
