Öz
We do not explicitly know why human beings show tendency to say swearwords. According to a common belief, they do so because of their hidden violent natures. Using swearwords against someone or something is mostly seen under the circumstances when a person can not harm physically his opponent. Thus he shows another sort of violence by his words. Even sometimes, swearing person aims at the most beloved people for his opponent and the harshness of his words may cause more damage than a physical attack on whom being swared. In the present day and society, most of people apply to the courts for being sweared by someone and demand compensation for his adversary. Nevertheless, one may see that it is not a new resort if he examines the Ottoman archival documents. In this paper, three different swearing cases in the Ottoman local courts shall be analyzed in the context of gender.
