LatAm substitute for coger

Doesn't coger mean the f swear word? What can I use in Latin America to say coger without getting laughed at/smacked in the face? 

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Conjugate stem-changing (g > j) verbs: -ger and -gir verbs in the present tense in Spanish (El Presente)"

Hola Nevaeh

The equivalent in Latin America is generally "tomar"; for example:

Yo tomo el autobús todos los días.

I take the bus everyday.

Luis toma sus libros para estudiar.

Luis takes his books to study.
