Further to Grahams posting has anyone here ever read Chaucer?If you think Shakespeare is impeneterable it is nothing compared to Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.The old english he used has long since disappeared and do we care?Do we heck.Agreed change for the sake of change is bad but as we grow,develop and progress as the human race,our languages are bound to change right along with us.
