I really doubt there's much interest here (or anywhere for that matter) for poems and plays written by some British dude in the 17th century. I never heard of him because that sort of stuff holds little interest to me. However, I looked him up. Here's what Wiki says about that line from "The Mourning Bride": "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned," spoken by Zara in Act III, Scene VIII, but paraphrased as "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." I suppose you'd correct anyone today who said, "don't kiss and tell". Congreve's original line was, "O fie, Miss, you must not kiss and tell". What the hell does "O fie" mean and how often is it used today? |

What the hell does "O fie" mean and how often is it used today? Not at all, unless you are attributing "...kiss and tell" to the author. If you are just using the phrase, why not? As for "fie," it is an exclamation of disgust, sometimes associated with a bad smell. "Fie...Herring has that disgusting, old man poop in the pants smell..." |
