Stop Turning Nouns Into Verbs Without Approval!

11/12/2017

There's something we should trial before we transition to a brave new world of verbing, the postmodern practice of wantonly turning nouns into verbs.

Just STOP before you do it!

STOP in the name of love of the English language! English has plenty of verbs, but just because they're often clunky and irregular does not give you the right to play havoc with them.

People have no respect for authority. It's shocking. We have a conservative government, and I call upon them to bloodywell conserve proper usage by setting up a very cushy, well-funded body named the Standing Committee on Proper Bloody English. I am very happy to be the first Chair of the Committee.

Malcolm, over to you.
