Question
I was wondering would you please tell me:  where did bad language originate
from?

P.S   would you please try to answer this question in a simple way.

Thanks

Answer
I am giving you the web links to two essays on your query which seemed very clear and interesting to me. I think you will find them useful. If you would still like explanations after reading them just send me a follow-up.
All the Best,
Sindhu.
