English language. Re defined?
Menen:
People say need because they want to empathize everything.
Example :
"But Moooooooom, I need to go to the mall and get that new shirt before they sell out or ill just die!"

Im pretty sure the words we use and the way we use them have been changing forever. Do we use words we used back in the 1700s?

Its handicapped when people say things like, " I need to got me food."
If we dont care about grammar, everyone would be 100x worse than a redneck.
Otis Da HousKat:
English is descriptive.
Linguistics is prescriptive.
One method is the correct method of human communication. The other is wrong.
Hint: It's not English
Nimbus:
Language evolves to help better communicate. This I have no problem with.
Sometimes people take it overboard, into a state that you can't even understand.
That is frustrating.
