Interesting experiment.

Be wary of top-down imposed language choices. Very wary. That's my advice, FWIW.

Here's my Christmas gift to you, stranger-but-friend (wink-wink):

I already lost this debate. My wife reads middle English Chaucer. There is no up or down. Nothing is real. Retreat from this front.

I recently saw StA's video and it reminds me how Thor and other Asgardians speak in the Marvel movies and also in the comics.

Overall, it's interesting but I probably won't be speaking like that anytime soon since I am so use to using words that have Latin/Greek roots.

Oldthinkers unbellyfeel Ingsoc.

I think this sums up Fife pretty well.

I still don't see a problem with highjacking their words.

Whose words?

Germans' or Newspeak?

I was speaking on what fife was talking about.

Ah, well, don't pay him no nevermind. He's an oldthinker, and that is no good, post-fact as we are.

On another note, who else finds some disturbing similarities between the habit of hashtags and duckspeak?
