Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between tf and wtf?

Wtf is 'what the fuck' and works as a complete reaction on its own. Tf is just 'the fuck' and normally sits inside a sentence in place of the fuller phrase, as in 'tf are you doing' or 'who tf is that'.

Is tf rude?

Yes. It stands in for a swear word, so it is fine between friends in casual messages but not appropriate at work, in school assignments or in anything formal.
