-This sociolinguistic study aims at investigating the oath expressions used by Jordanians.
It examines the linguistic functions the oaths represent besides the objects sworn by in addition to the phonological, lexical and syntactic features they stand for.
The sample of the study consisted of (600) oath expressions collected from different places in North Jordan.
Different variables have been taken into consideration such as gender, geographical location, age and degree of formality.
The study revealed that oath making achieved four linguistic functions among which emphasis represented more than (50%) whereas humiliation represented lesser than (8%).
The study unveils also that females were more polite than males concerning the language functions.
Thirteen percent of the total number of the collected data, (78) oaths, represent social and sexual taboos.
This component showed that females were more polite compared with males.
In addition, among the objects sworn by, the oath words which stand for religion constituted more than (50%) whereas swearing by animals formed the smallest number of the oaths.
Moreover, people who occupy prominent jobs did not use nonsensical expressions and used the least number of oaths.
On the contrary, school children, university students and laborers, who hit the highest point of using oaths, recorded the uppermost percentage of using taboo expressions.
As a final point, the study gave an idea about the degree of formality where (92%) of the oath expressions took place in informal situations.
