My whole life, people make these allusions to "The N word", but they never actually say it. Supposedly, niggers get particularly mad when it's used. So I've always assumed it was Net Worth or Nuclear Family. But those are phrases, not words. So what is it?

It's a word that was given so much power that words that sound close enough could cause an alert signal.
Even words from other languages like the Korean word for you(naega), the Russian word(kniga) for book, and the Chinese word for that(Na-ge). The Japanese word for run away also gets people in trouble sometimes despite sounding nothing like the magic word.
