Wear a rubber band around your wrist and snap it everytime you cuss.

just speak the language slowly , softly and clearly. often refer to pronounciation dictionary in order to learn new words. also refer them to know the exact pronounciation of the words that you come accross in your daily life.\nfor further information u can contact abhijitrait@yahoo.co.in

I had a friend who did that.\n\nI found a cute, funny cut off phrase and I laugh now whenver she starts talking too much. I just laugh and say "Geez, chick, can I say something?"  She laughs too, and then lets me speak.\n\nYou need to find a funny phrase for your friend too that let's her know you have something to say, but make sure it's kind but assertive.\n\nGood Luck

Ooh this is a tricky one!!\n\nYou can either make a big deal out of it by shouting and screaming at them, giving them a reaction and making them think they have pressed another button......or..... you could ignore it!! up to a point!!\n\nWhen my eldest son said his first swear word I told him to repeat it because I was so shocked. I sat him down and explained to him that I didn't appreciate the language and if he continued to use such language he will be ignored....... completely!!\nThe following day he swore again...... I didn't say anything to him but when he tried to talk to me, I turned my back on him. He asked why I wasn't talking to him and I told him again that he had said a rude word........ it took about a week but he got the message!!

There isn't a proven method to stop.  I still talk in my sleep, and i still even sleepwalk(allthough mostly I've grown out of this!!).  I've done both since I was about 7, and now I'm 26.  Good luck.  If you find out how to stop, let me know.

Try to create a habit that's not as bad to substitute for it.\n\nTry to find the worst consequence that could come out of your habit. Think about it every time your habit occurs.

I've been accused of it.  Always speak quickly, with a sense of urgency, like you're going to be late, or you just HAVE to get it all out.  Not so fast that you stumble, just more quickly.  Then make your R's soft, sorta roll an R into an l.  Like Saying York like Yalk.  See if it helps.

What do you mean by swearing? Are you talking about bad words like the F-Bomb and S-Bomb? Or are you talking about taken the lords name in vain. \n\nUsing the F-bomb and other word like it, the bible does not say you should not use that word per say but it does say "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." Ephesians 4:29\n\nAs for using the LORD name in vain then Just read the ten commandments. \n\nk1

It is a habit you must help your brain break. Cut a stray in half. keep it in your mouth and to the side and back. Don't allow yourself to bite down on it.

If you're dealing with comprehension, try picking out the information you  think is very important because there are many sentences that talk nothing but crap. Just try reading very slowly, and concentrate. Don't think about anything else while reading because it disrupts information from being memorized this is why some people can't remember what they have read. If that doesn't help, find a book, lock yourself in a bedroom and read it out loud just like what a professional speaker would do. Trust me, it worked for me. Try to imagine there's an audience and it's up to you what you want to do next.

Unfortunately profanity is becoming used more and more. It is a "sign of the times" so to speak. Bubbles2006 had probably a good solution, ask the person to quit saying profanities around you. But this can lead to the person doing it even more to aggravate you. Although I don't care for it I have learned to ignore it and let the person speak as they wish. We cannot change them they must do the changing on their own.\n\nOne very intelligent person once told me, "Profanity is used by those whom lack the intelligence to communicate in any other way." I have often though of that statement when I am around someone who uses gross and frequent profanity.

I have the same problem when I'm learning scripts, and I encountered it day after day until I tried this little old trick: Remember a key word from each line you have. Spend time learning the script itself, and when you get to that awkward stage where you sort of remember the lines and yet keep slipping up, and use the key words to help you. Almost like a mental dot-to-dot, or map. It seems to work wonders for me; hope this helps!

read DICTIONARY... it may sound funny but believe me it really helps. in your free time just open any page and start ready. it improves vocabulary, word usage & pronounciation...\n\nbest of luck!

say things over and over again and copy it down over and over again. Helps a lot. Also, try rapping it if you like rap or just singing it to your favorite tune.

Try repeating this:\n\n"Hee-Hee: Ha-Ha: Ha-Ha: Hee-Hee: <SNORT> Ha-Hee: Hee-Ha\n***Deep Breath*** <Snort> Heeeeeeee-Heeeeeeee:Haaa-Haa\n...TiiipppiiiiTaaaayyyttttiiipppiiiiiitooooooo***Deep Breath***\n <Tears> <More Tears> Hee-Hee Haaaaaa-aaawwwaaaa. Sigh"

Calmy approach him and let him know that it makes you uncomfortable to hear him speak that way.  Ensure him that in no way are you trying to control his mouth, nor do you want to take away his feedom of speech.  Just let him know that his behavior is having a negative effect on your mood and you're afraid that such negativity may affect your relationship with him.  If he accepts your words and makes a conscious effort to change--and remember, it's not going to happen over night--then I'm sure you guys will be fine.  If not, however, then maybe "Mr. Potty-mouth" isn't the man for you.

Read every night.\n\n(This is MOST important!) Speak more english to people especially those who speak proper english, not those who always speak in slang. \n\nListen to audio tapes.\n\nEmail online.
