I was merely talking about the amazing speed to which this word evolved, and how it happened so recently. And for anyone else thinking I was trying to say that you shouldn't 'misuse' words... you are wrong... well mostly anyway. | ||

One change I've noticed (or maybe the change is only that I started noticing it) is everyone using as to as a preposition instead of about or regarding. See this paper for oodles of examples: lol yale. It seems to me that I see this more and more lately, but maybe it's always been that way  Oh yeah, another change is people saying "it begs the question" when that has a completely different meaning (that next to no one, including me, understands which is why we simply shouldn't use the phrase), when "it raises the question" would do just fine. And of course, noone will eventually be recognized as a word, alongside (ironically) retarted and genious. And loose will stop being the opposite of tight and will be recognized as the opposite of win. I'm afraid I've moved away from talking about semantic drift and into dangerous crotchety old man territory. Maybe I can get it back on track with some historical examples. Next post. | ||
