I am fascinated by words and language.
💬🗣
I wrote in this post about some of my favorite words that aren't in English.
I love different accents when spoken in English and sayings from collection nations.
But there are a few words that have been grating like nails on chalkboard.
Populism
Paradigm shift
Pussy
profiling
That's a lot of 'P' words!
Fake news - that is two but one rarely hears one without the other these days
surveillance
hack
trump-ing
dynamic
despite Brexit
fashion trend
luxurious
hip
Millenial Instagrammer
algorithm
live press conference
ban
hubris
'So' - when starting a new train of thought or in the beginning of a sentence. This is like starting a new conversation with - therefore.
I know it is an accepted form of vernacular presently but it still sounds like the beginning of a story that university girls will start with when they recount how they think their professor is hitting on them. Please don't use in professional setting.
Please feel free to vent!
