OT: There seems to be more resent discussion around what is said and how it is said.
Most languages around the world have very strict rules regarding language structure especially between verbs and nouns. English on the other hand is very much governed by context.
Major impacts on context include but are not limited to:
Mother language if English is a second language and also regional base of the English that is learned. The two together can not be divorced from each other.
Region the English you learned and use comes from. English from the regions of London, England, Glasgow, Scotland, Dallas, Texas and Toronto Canada all have there unique styles and definitions of English. This does not mean one is superior then the other, it is just reality that one must live with.
Educational background. A great weather day for a weather reporter is going to be different, then a storm chaser, then a farmer, then a blue collar outside worker, then a white collar worker, then an airplane pilot, then a sea captain ......
Make up of the individual.
Friv is famous on this board. He comes across as a man of passion and action. Therefore he loves wild weather, great fluctuations of ice numbers. Quiet times in the Arctic means Friv generally is quiet. Does that mean he really truly believes the ice should go from the Arctic? Doubt it. He just loves the action.
Point being Keep your criticisms of language use to a minimum unless you cross the line of derogatory personal terms, coarseness, or the usage makes what you are saying impossible to understand. English is a very rich language that every turn of phrase can have multiple interpretations all of which are very legitimate. This then means it is the reader and/or listener who has the responsibility to understand what is being said and not the writer.
Edit: If this should have its own post in a different topic I will move, or you can. It just has started to really bother me the amount of time spent on what words should and should not be said. Sometimes getting down to very personal attacks.
