All anglos seem to viscerally hate prescriptivism for some reason, indeed likely to better push their mongrel merchant pidgin onto everyone else.

- john_the_writer 4y agoThat seems odd to me. As a mostly english speaking Canadian, I have a pile of french and german words pushing into my vocabulary. I never felt the word Kindergarten was pushed into my diction. It just works. My CV or Resume speaks for itself. :) I don't really view these as borrowed words. They are just words. Just the same, I don't get upset when I spell colour without the U, when I program. I find is super odd that a country that gave us free speech spends so much time working on a way to police the words their people use.
