gothwalk: (announcement)
([personal profile] gothwalk Dec. 4th, 2008 10:22 am)
There is no central authority for the English language. Therefore, I'm claiming it. I am now IT as far as English is concerned. You have queries on English, come to me, and I'll ignore most of them. This is mostly because I'm taking on this authority with two things in mind, and one footnote.

First and foremost, the word 'fail', and all its variants, are now, hereby and forever, excised from English. They no longer exist.

Second, the pseudo-word 'meh' is likewise sentenced to destruction. It is returned to being a nonsense syllable, carrying no meaning. It did not have far to go.

Footnote: 'Bleah' is on a last warning.

Carry on, then.

Hey if you're getting rid of words this is my list:

crux
juxtaposition / juxtaposed
plethora
centrafugal/ centrefuge (I dont care if they're spelt wrong, nobody in the Language Bin will give a damn.)
the phrase: "there in lies the rub"
any words that end in "sks" or "scs" eg masks, risks, discs etc


I keep a running tally somewhere... will get back to you with the rest.
