Wajnryb (2005) provides seventeen types of swear words and three functions of swear words that were used in this study. This study used qualitative approach because the writer used text as the data.

The finding shows that there are nine of the seventeen types of swear words used by the main male character in The Wolf of Wall Street movie, they are abusive swearing, epithet, foul language, insult, obscenity, profanity, swear, taboo words, and vulgarity. By using those nine types of swear words, the main male character uses swear words as cathartic swearing, aggression swearing, and social connection swearing. Moreover, the main female character uses five of the seventeen types of swear words, they are swearing, epithet, insult, obscenity, and vulgarity.
