If they really do understand what each other is trying to say, it doesn't matter much what words they're using.
What annoys me is when half of the comments is about form, not about substance. It's understandable, people (including me) love to correct mistakes of other people, but it still annoys me.
- rbanffy 13y agoWhen people start misusing a word, it loses its original meaning. There is an avoidable period of confusion between the moment people start using word A to mean a subset of A and when everyone agrees A refers to a subset of what previously was A. I like to avoid confusion whenever possible.
