#ScribesAndMakers May 9 How likely are you to embrace changes to language usage? Linguistics was my 2nd favorite specialty while studying anthropology. It's interesting to see how language evolves. I included a little of that in my work, since it spans a long period of time, but not so much as to confuse or annoy readers. For myself, at my age, I am often behind in the "latest lingo," but I try to keep up.

#ScribesAndMakers May9 How likely are you to embrace changes to language usage? Generally I love it when new words enter the lexicon, it's a skibidi phenomenon as long as it's not skibidi. But I tend to use mostly archaic language in my writing, so, going in the other direction. I guess at heart I am a very traditional person in terms of language, so I personally am unlikely to embrace changes, but I'm fine with them at a broader level.
