When did we allow new words to complicate our English language? When did "memorize" replace "learn" or "remember", "have a dialogue" replace "talk" and what does "normalize" mean?
Why did we allow it?
Is it that American-speak became cool? And if so, why are schools who use a British curriculum using such words in the classroom?
Call me archaic, but every time I see or hear these words, and there are many more than I cite here, I cringe.
I long for the time when English is simplified again.
Question is, will it ever be?
