Language, whether written or spoken, is to facilitate communication; understanding of what one person is trying to tell another.

The rapid changes in vocabulary, slang, additions to the dictionary, etc....

What difference does adherence to archaic styles and form do for the flavor, or flavour, of communication?

My favorite things are eating my family and not using commas.

It is important to be certain you have conveyed the message intended to the recipient.

I tell everyone I have the body of a 20 year old. Please don't share that with the police.
