Emunah: That’s because it’s not a curse word in Israeli society. Curse words are inherently subjectively. Totally innocuous words to Americans are considered incredible offensive in England and vice versa. There is nothing inherently bad about the word. You can ask them not to say it because you don’t like to hear it (totally understandable), but it doesn’t mean anything bad to them like it does to you.
