Trying to ID a mysterious fruit
"Stewart Robert Hinsley" wrote in message
James Nicoll's epigram applies - "The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary" Superb! |
