I'm looking for a powerful word that is something like "journey" or "quest" except one destined to fail. Anyone know a good word for something like that?

I really have study that for English swear words, the reason being the French. at the same time as France invaded England, William the Conqueror outlawed English. that's maximum words used except for low existence English who were servants and cooks. numerous previous English words are considered foul words. for instance, snot skill mucous. Mucous is the polite "French" thanks to assert snot. subsequently, the expression at the same time as one curses is : "Pardon my French."
