Adding “rare” to terms containing “arse”
editWhere are you getting this from? It’s very common in the UK and Ireland. Theknightwho (talk) 19:29, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- Think that we say "asshole" "assed" "ass" "half-ass" "half-assed" "candy-ass" "assclown" "smartass" "kiss my ass" "asswipe" "asshead" "assface" ETC. Also that is very common in UK, Ireland and Commonwealth countries. Which else is there to add a rare sense label? Sherlocks1050 (talk) 19:46, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Sherlocks1050 I'm a British English speaker who's lived in the UK most of my life, and "arse" is used more than "ass" in most situations; even among young speakers. The only time "arse" is rare is as an intensifier, so "spooky-arse" wouldn't really get used as an alternative to "spooky-ass", but that doesn't apply to any of the entries you changed; not even "smart-arse", where "arse" is being used as a noun.
