History ‘scholars’ weighing in on this 🔗 LinkedIN post .. I can’t be bothered to join in.

For me - YUP … Count me with the Luddites

The point of this post is more about language changing .. over time words get co-opted and they change and come to mean something different .. oft' through more and more people not having the full understanding of the origins. Shame really. I’m all for language changing .. I just wished people wouldn’t change the meaning just because they don’t understand the nuance .. or worse that they don’t know.

At least that footy player said in front of the world that he didn’t know what ‘encyclopedic’ meant.

Maybe he ‘could care less’ (sic) … another peeve.
