Thread Name: NPR - degradation of language & music
Subject: RE: NPR - degradation of language & music
I suspect scholars in Shakespeare's day deplored and denounced his neologisms. The change we're going through today is, I admit, a little intense. For the first time in history, that I know of, popular music is in the hands of people who don't give a rat's ass about language or nuance.
