Pope Francis Lets A Vulgarity Slip During Vatican Address
It was a simple slip of the tongue, people say. But when the pope accidentally utters a vulgarity during a public speech, people notice. That's what happened during Sunday's weekly blessing by Pope Francis, sparking a flurry of comments on social media.
The pope quickly realized his misstep and corrected himself. But there are things people simply cannot un-hear, and this seems to be one of them.

"If each one of us does not amass riches only for oneself, but half for the service of others, in this **** ... in this case the providence of God will become visible through this gesture of solidarity," he said, as he read from prepared remarks before delivering the traditional Marian prayer of the Angelus.
Francis didn't look away from his notes as he quickly corrected his momentary flub, but he left "the crowd gathered in St Peter's Square and those watching around the world asked themselves 'Did he just say f***?'" the Daily Mail says.
and More on the word: "Cazzo"
