Some Language Change articles

Hi folks, it's been a while, I know, but the blog is back with links to two very interesting articles on language change. Worth a look, anyway:

Philip Hensher on trendy additions to dictionaries http://comment.independent.co.uk/columnists_a_l/philip_hensher/article2614566.ece

Joan Bakewell on taboo language http://comment.independent.co.uk/columnists_a_l/joan_bakewell/article2600452.ece

enjoy
:)
