I entirely agree.
The thing that really sets my teeth on edge is how the spoken [English] language has been so distorted as to be almost unrecognisable in many cases...."innit"
You only have to look at "text speak" that's not even close it's gibberish! C U L8R.
No one can seem to string a sentence together now without using expletives, I swear {have done for years} but there's a time and a place.
Another thing is O.K. maybe it's me, but at least I can sit down and physically write a letter to someone, I may not have all the Apostrophes and Exclamation marks as they should be but the letter could be understood, I doubt anyone under the age of 30 has ever written a letter or received one or been shown how to write one, yes I realise that nowadays there's little need but it makes me wonder what's being taught in our schools.
It's the same when "young" people are on these quiz shows. The idea is that, when you apply to go on, you are able to answer questions on a variety of subjects, no one is expecting them to be a brain boxes, I'm CERTAINLY not no where near but they should have a Modicum of intelligence unfortunately if the answers don't contain the words Adele, Kardashian or Gucci they are at a loss.
