Though actually不過其實， older English used the family of this word以前的英文曾用這個字的家族詞 for people they called "uncivilised,"來說他們稱為「uncivilised」（未開化）的人， and that use can sound ugly and unfair now這種用法現在聽起來既難聽又不公平。 In careful modern English在謹慎使用的現代英文裡， savagery is mostly about cruelty這個字主要是在講殘忍， not about whose country someone comes from不是在講一個人來自哪個國家， and it is kinder — and truer — to keep it that way這樣用不但比較厚道，也比較準確。
