Language that doesn't fit.

The most recent one was an author who I like in a chapter I actually loved for the most part. But she had a character using "fuck" as a swear word and it just threw me out a bit because in the setting (Middle Earth) it didn't seem appropriate at all. Using the word in the sex context didn't bother me, but it felt off to me for it to be used outside of that context in a world where it didn't seem to fit.

Oh, and also using some sort of equivalent of "god" as a swear to try to make it fit. Please no "gods" or "Eru" or whatever. If they don't use the word that way in that fandom, don't try to make one up that fits.
