Language is one of the most beautiful things that humans have ever created. If you listen to the flow of another language, you may not know the meaning, but you may think that it is like a beautiful melody. Even in a language that embraces beauty, there is a device to express anger called 'swearing'.

Is it conceivable to perceive cursing devoid of emotions as possessing an inherent beauty?

Profanity samples were collected from people in 11 different countries with as little emotion as possible. Each waveform was dismantled and reassembled in accordance with the standard. The color of the pieces resembles that of cancer cells.
Cancer cells can be detected by SEM ( scanning electron micrograph ). Basically, SEM is electronically scanning machine ,images provided by the SEM are black and white, and single images contain information in only two dimensions. Of course grayscale images from an SEM are normal since this technology forms images with electrons instead of photons of visible light.Most of the pictures of cells are colorized photo with specific applications.

However, each cancer have their own colors. Each colors represents different type of cancers. Mainly those colors from color ribbon campaign for the people who are past survivors or current fighters of cancers. In 2011, in Japan, Researchers found a reagent for detecting cancer cells with the naked eyes. It turns cancer cells into neon color. This discovery makes easier to distinguish cancer cells from other ordinary cells.
