mick

mick is a noun, but it is not a neutral label: it is an offensive ethnic slur for a person from Ireland or someone of Irish descent. Knowing this word can help you recognize harmful language in historical texts, discriminatory speech, or discussions of prejudice, but it should not be used to describe people. In this lesson, we look at why context matters when a slur appears in writing or conversation, what respectful alternatives such as Irish person, Irishman, and Irishwoman do instead, and why related forms remain offensive. Watch the full lesson to learn how to recognize the word without normalizing it.
