Toxic language is language used to deliberately harm or disparage someone or something. It is often used in verbal or written communications and can include threats, name-calling, put-downs, discrimination, and more. The most common types of toxic language are derogatory, inflammatory, and disrespectful. Toxic language can lead to psychological effects such as low self-esteem and depression, and it can also create an environment that is unwelcoming and unpleasant. It can be particularly damaging in the workplace, social settings, and educational institutions. Recent years have seen an increase in public discussions of how to deal with toxic language, with many people advocating for a greater awareness of the issue and for change in how we communicate with one another.
