Personally I like Denglish (D&D English), so I have no combatification with thissue.
Denglish is a little bit like whadoobah mo fhizzle and a little bit like Medieval pidginpeasant. For instance:
"Avast ye rogues, this Paladin comes hither in earnest!"
It ain't the Queen's gude Anglishe, but it scares the chaoticalneutrals.
For example, Dr. Seuss is filled with incorrect language. Most of it is not words in English, or any other established language. I daresay that making his language more correct would have ruined his creative work, and ability to get his point across. Thus, more correct language would not have been better language.
Excellent point. Hamlet is filled with bad Olde English, but some pretty good Shakespeare.
Bill Bryson points out that addiing compound words to the english language is a particularly American trait.
That's a good one too I reckon.
You just never can figgur what'll show up next.
heywhydon'twesaveevenmorespaceandjustrunALLtheword stogether!!
I can read it backwards and it says that "Paul is the Walrus."
Our language has already changed from times far back. Why should we think now that that process should halt? Would halt?
It's the Lawecat, that's why!
Does this mean I'm correct when I read the "PopeyesChicken" sign as "Pope-yes Chicken?"
That's right. Pope luvs him sum yardbird!
He's been in Italy too long.
Darned cultural imperialism!
And don't forget the Vikings. Nobody much likes the Vikings either.
Actually, it's the same in German - or was, right now, it's all the range to use English words nonsensically.
That sounds a lot like what we do in the round these parts. Sumbody says, "Hey, you gonna head down to the south range this afternoon and look into that missing gate?"
"That's nonsense Bob. You know I don't speak no Spanish."
Yeah, I tried giving him some XP for that, but apparently I already beat myself to it.
Not that I don't believe ya Blarg, but I'd like to see that in slow motion.
Just so I'd know it's not some kinda camera trick.
