Dearest teachers.

I saw 'hoe' when chatting in the chatroom. Seeing that, I was confused with what it meant correctly. Because it was unsuitable for the text at that time. As far as I know, hoe means a gardening tool to remove small weeds and break up the surface of the soil or else. But I guessed it was used by slang though I didn't understand what it meant exactly.
teachers, would you let me know? need your helps

many many thanks!

love,
mira

The word the person wanted to use isn't exactly a nice word, so s/he modified it by using another word that sounds just like it.

"hoe", a gardening tool, sounds just like this offensive word: Click here.
