ANGLISH: English without the 'foreign' bits

YouTube

We shouldnt be ultra conservative when it comes to language. Rather we should be like poets when trying to understand our world.

viewing dictionaries as guiders
not as authorities

To embrace the cultures we have grown up with. Talking visually, grounded and with flexibly. Because in the unending struggle against might, we always have to adapt against their oversteer.

We should not waste our time in enforcing academic tongue in our communities. This would make our speech foggy, ungrounded and rigid.

That isnt to say that science doesnt have a place, but rather that change seekers should speak as poets.

@NeuKelte Personally, I like to avoid using latin words because they are not as digestable as english words.

Therefore I like to frame imperialism as overmightdom, and colonialism as overwielddom.

These ideas are taken from the anglish community.

I imagine a doctor guiding their patient with bodes (anglish for advice). A patient with heart issues would be given the bodes of stop smoking and eat healthy for instance.

Here we could let a hand offering a lightbulb stand for the bode.

Hoardlessfolks needs to understand that our tongue plays a huge role in making change happen. With tongue awareness, we will understand our struggles meetly, we will tailor our forthfare, we will be able to met forth our dreams, we will be able to gleed our mates into deeds.
