- If you are looking for the vulgar term in the re-imagining, it is spelled frak.
Frack is a Colonial colloquialism for the word "fuck".
It may be the case that the word does not carry the same level of social taboo as did "fuck" in 1978 America. In "Greetings from Earth", Boxey says, "Oh, frack," in a classroom where Athena is teaching a group of children, loudly enough for the entire room to hear, but there is no indication that he was punished or reprimanded. The word may carry no more social weight than "rats" or "darn" in the universe of the Galactica.
Other variants include: fracking or fracked.
Though never used in the original series, an assumed variant is also the plural form: fracks.
