Well, well..same old crap being spread by the John and his Turds.
Good news story for The John...the Oxford Dictionary has added some new words and included is 'Merican. Looks like I was ahead of my time, although I may write them and advise a change to 'merican. |

I agree it should be * 'merican * |

For you, *'merican* is appropriate, just as is 'kanaduh' for Donnie. |

I don't know anything can stop the evolution of a living language, even if that path leads it to "corruption." That seems like a strange stance from an english major. Isn't your job to educate and preserve the language? If we can just make up words, ignore grammar and eschew proper spelling, why bother to study the language at all. At a certain point we will have placated the lowest common denominator and devolved to pointing and grunting. |

- show quoted text - Ah, so you've been to a TeaParty or Trump rally! Seriously, English has evolved tremendously in the centuries since its Germanic and Anglo-Saxon origins. It is unlikely you would have understood many of the "English" words spoken by my favorite lady of history,Eleanor of Acquitaine, and for many reasons. Here's a sentence or two from Beowulf: Sona þæt gesawon snottre ceorlas, þa ðe mid Hroðgare on holm wliton, þæt wæs yðgeblond eal gemenged, brim blode fah. Blondenfeaxe, gomele ymb godne, ongeador spræcon þæt hig þæs æðelinges eft ne wendon þæt he sigehreðig secean come mærne þeoden; þa ðæs monige gewearð þæt hine seo brimwylf abroten hæfde. ..... Bet you don't understand it either. Lol! |
