swearer

/swˈɛɹɚ/ noun

one who swears

Word Origin Swearer is simply 'one who swears,' from Old English swerian, which originally meant to take a solemn oath, not just to curse. The deeper root *swer- in PIE meant 'to speak, talk,' so swearing was a serious speech act. That's why forswear means to renounce under oath, and swearword is a word used in oaths — though now often just profanity.
