"The language of the gutter" nghĩa là gì?


"The language of the gutter" có gutter là nơi bùn lầy, cặn bã -> cụm từ này nghĩa là giọng du côn đểu cáng.

Ví dụ
This is the language of the gutter. It is unacceptable, for it crosses the red line of public decorum (chuẩn mực). But in addition to the culture of public decency (thích hợp) that is undermined (làm suy yếu) by such language, it also soon leads to a culture of violence. Lynchings and arson are only the next step in this new public culture that presents one's adversary as a national enemy.

There is a memorable scene where a young boy is beaten (đánh đập) in school for speaking in Scots vernacular (tiếng lóng), “the language of the gutter” according to the tyrannical schoolmaster.

Then he had a twin revelation (khám phá): that creating printed card designs was much less labour intensive than making them one by one; and that the language of the gutter makes money.

That is why we will not go ahead to expose the putrid (tồi tệ) stench (hôi thối) that flows from the self-acclaimed PDP leader in Ika South Local Government Area who is the sponsor and brain behind this noxious (độc hại) and obnoxious (khó chịu) post. We will not condescend (chiếu cố) to the level of a person who can only use the language of the gutter where he belongs.
