Does a character that swears every sentence work?

[Rai_Muffin]

That would be my approach.
Swearing can really punch up the dialogue if delivered at the right time.

[llobucervallince]

but I'd think that that depends on the character though.
sure a sweet little child who yells fuck in a specific moment of tension would

punch up the dialogue

but if it was the classic sailor or someone generally rude, I think it would still work.

[Rai_Muffin]

True.
His characters this badass space mercenary, so I think they can pull it off.

I try to write dialogue the same way that people talk naturally. If I’m writing a mechanic’s dialogue you’d better believe there are going to be F-bombs (disclaimer: I’m a mechanic by trade). If I’m writing a doctor’s dialogue I will try to class it up a bit.

I’ve actually used this as a plot device. Not a big part of the plot, but a part of it: Daecon, my main character in Finding Daecon’s Way, starts out as a rich, spoiled, arrogant brat with no couth whatsoever. As the story progresses (ie, as he finds his way) he becomes much more sophisticated and talks much more elegantly, though he does have his regressions occasionally. I would say that he’s only human, but really, he isn’t….

I think the more angry she is stronger she curses and if she's just mildy annoyed she will not insult you the same as if she is under extreme rage.
Like in normal mood she will just call you an idiot.
If she's really angry she'll call you a motherfucker.

And theres a hole spectrum of moods represeded by how strogly she swears and insults people when talking to them.

How to write a foul mouth;

And

Also

tl;dw- Cussing is an exclamation point. In Trainspotting it's used to express frustration. In Pulp Fiction it's used to deliver the punchline. In the Carlin monologue it's used for both.

When Yuki was child she was beaten up in a fight wich made her feel really weak every since then she felt like she had to toughen up and she swears as a result, to seem tough.

[llobucervallince]

[dbeirigo]

she's really pissed cause jackie called her knee-high

[MK_Wizard]

Yes and no. They can't swear on every sentence, but every page, yes.

[TheLemmaLlama]

Do you have a longer stretch of dialogue involving the character? obvs swearing literally every sentence is unrealistic, but it's hard to gauge if she 'swears too much' through isolated lines from different contexts
