wearing socks. i'm using deodorant. all it is, is a fashion. that's all it is. there is a larger point which is there are many ways of being shiver lists and language. many we have an english or just hidden. so the waiter or waitress to come so what are we having today? what are you having is a little direct. but the waiter is not going to have any food with you. though we is a form of alignment. or somebody says to a single person, this happened in the south, you all come back you here. often that would be said to one person but the you all is not calling one person you all like a bugs bunny cartoon. leaving the implication that there might be somebody else out in the s car because it is too direct to just say you come back. so you all in stead in french

of it.ld never think but no, he always very polite. the people that want npr say sort of. people say sort of whenever they are about to say something which is said withoutin an would be a little bit pushy or little dramatic.hy raggedy as it sounds for many people are more interested in those sorts of things then billy and i went to the store. did you sort of used micro- aggression? >> i'm thinking that's wrong now. wait a minute i say that i think they are in. was thinking, thatt if i just said waiter, it implies they're all men. waitress? server. is nice to see you again. question, so you mentioned the

development of the land but what you think about it being demanded when the group is demanding usage otherwise you are impolite and rude and even worse. >> when that happens, i think that it is impolite to require in such a way that if anybody flips, is considered a torque because, pronounce or so deeply seated in their almost own words. their signalsiv and their neuros and bible neurons for someone especially over certain age and that age only 35 years old and i keep changing but you know to not be able to accept his flip some very nice in my experience, very few people are while they don't understand that in most settings i've been everybodye respectfully is always going to do right.

and instability the change happens as quickly manually rapid change of people will be able to do it perfectly in my sense is that times that maybe 2019 or 2020, i hope that we will see. >> thank you. i've been a political writer for more than half a century. as rainfall the ap style otherwise do not signal anyway what my own opinions might be about someone subjects were ready. one of the disc on the way over the years but one of the things that i worry about, because now i can look at somebody's writings and i can my age, i can pretty will tell that person's politics are just by the use of

certain words instead of other words pretty even if you're trying to hide it to be an objective reporter whatever and then, the brings to my concerns. it is in this age of a.i., if i were somebody and hr department, fortune 500 corporations someone involved in admissions to a college, and i wanted make sure that he only admitted the people who like me, who thought like me. he's to read through essays for applications and sort of try to figure out but now, i can train that a.i. coming to pick out which of the people that i want to discriminate in favor and the ones i discriminated against. and again, these diaries social systems that control over society so get even worse than just letting you in college letting you into a corporation

any thousand out. >> that's an interesting observation i would say that about braided t estimates goingo have to be h that there is a benefit in that people's writings is more idiosyncratic of them tillis trying to write in a faceless way and what you mean there is a certain to the way one's expected to write it offer ed's in 199 and i like the idea pretty were like what were really talking about is mike speech. like the idea you learn right from the idea is not to learn how to do something that you don't do naturally, based on rules, that frankly, somebody made up out of thin air a long time ago. like you do the writing is you think of running the past an adjustment for example uncle tom's and who reads that now

with while what was it like. frustrating think about donald hobbs kevin they right in there that 19th century way, and is beautiful but almost nobody talks the way you actually wrote even if you when local police writing them as colloquial as you knew how they talk and weor she had been comfortable writing, the wake that everybody talked braided notices linguist to me but because that reality be part of art itself an annuity mean when the is not talk to write the way that you were taught. there's definitely not talk to write this at all but i do not learn to write in the modern culture between and i don't mean like people the right like real, selected socially with headlights and have just an evening the trunk just does not show up but i can imagine, not doing that as well.

>> thank you for much you mentioned meghan, which sparked my is great on the american language book. we think a child negative with me you know i current situation what event to seen is another american linguistic, the way we have always been going through. >> he had view so love the vernacular and he shouted it with detailed love one of the things i write but we never know, is also somebody are crafted language intensely are simply american mercury, he has dozens and dozens of people rightly also lisa like you because he changedxa pros rated existence of the way that when was the right and also speak in public.

so i think that will be due in terms of them thinking, listening to donald trump's speech not like it. he would take down the vernacular'ss -isms side of citigroup in the 50s in the queens saying certain things. but he would think that trump is of us keep that to woody's what i was a make way. but it's interesting view one right way is the levity that some editors think it's a very important from the concision nothing better than to leave something by linking to get cdna works, but i would say without at least 17 predict there was an r2 of the nobody he knew that. >> speaking of trump, i just wonder what you make of his speeches and sometimes the crude nest in the insulting references

the violent language in insulting. mentally disabled is a lot of what d is it tell about language to simple regard that is more authentic abolished political speech. >> this perfectly authentic you, it's really unfiltered. devoid of any kind of effort this is that you do something different and when you're standing there iff you are going in your kitchen. you can do that now because the cultures more informal and think just thinking over again, reagan was a great crafter language even if you do not agree with only 70 over the fill of the way expressed. most people couldn't help but once you have say george w. bush, andw. cool feel and sometimes just would be an publican must serve him and taken seriously even if for ten minutes, then culture and lisa getting up and talking is okay.

worked on the cap on the way here, my driver having to have him where is he today, in michigan. i was listening to him doing his thing and it was something of with a floppy and sloppy speak nothing yogurt has dementia presence and like you said what i was just thinking is that this is exactly the way people talk including that he's not afraid to show his less savory signs in terms of receipt. the camp counselor braided okay, it's going to be interesting but i just listened and i think that he just cannot be bothered to make effort. >> i'm going to ask a few weeks ago, you suggested that perhaps we were one of those english professors that he was reverting rent and preferring to the

english professors think we better talk. this is just great prayed to follow up and that no reason reason for this. >> will i was just thinking point did not hear from them nobody bothered me about the but it's where all is good to know. [laughter] >> hi, so the topic is, can words create justice. so i am in the possible distinction and wondering, if you would make the distinction between euphemism treadmill evolution of language where something like secretary would take on a negative connotation and that we say administrative assistant there's really nois difference in terms of meeting of this works that changes connotation potentially for a while words like changes like

for he or she or my favorites, assigned ator birth, pork and fr my view, i just reread what you north new york times columns on the noun change seems like you pretty strong supporter of noun evolution and i think that you argued that is because it helps individuals feel greater acceptance more in line with gender identity and to me this a political view also has an legations for science and the impact of science and knowledge andg understanding society and applications provincially for policy. so what if you distinguish between the outcome of the two types of changes and if you would say, that in say the pronoun or excited birth case,

the change in language is running justice. >> that's an important distinction because the one thing. i pronounce or another so pronouns are deeply seated in their these traffic cops and language pretty change them differently argue is more likely to make people aware of different ways people in changing homeless, one housed and so, suddenly having to address somebody to refer to somebody across the room as they rather than he or she. there's no way looking at the gender binary's people advocating, i mentioned that yes, that might be something that would help to raise awareness. i think an alternate universe where there is no such thing is that young people were calling

himself he or she nevertheless works pushing the engine the binary's, thought we changed just as well because the changing manifests itself is a very many ways. presently when you're doing with some grammar definitely special piece of grammar pronounce. that affects about directly quickly this happening if they over 100 years no what happens within one generation work allll of us have to change, sure, we are thinking about things in a different way. and certainly were aware in the way that we were before. >> to the point, you say that they in them is essentially harmless or polite thing to do for people who want that. and it may feel that they have a gender. what about changes happening quite quickly you do not go

along, is often across come of people do feel that they have a gender. washington post to dial is to say pregnant women and planned parenthood said, chest feeders and there's a lot of language about reproduction that simply eliminates the idea woman ferments. not everyone is in a position to oppose that if that is a workplace requirement. >> what you know, those particular terms and many people find so very egregious the they end of them these new conceptions of what woman is. my sense is that those are exactly the sort some things that will be become part of the german it would be irritating if i did and say resources materials and imagine they will increase in them but that is

only ever going to go so far i think that 2020 coming as a certain kindop of person hoping the same pregnant women and people with agendas or something like that, that they would spread but it won't goes to against what ordinary humans worldwide but is nothing that those things are going to retreat. you agree pretty think that they are beginning to spend more influence. it was my says that overst the past four years with those things work story that something makingin themselves beyond a certain circle. >> i think a lot of places are. [inaudible]. probably from 2021 between anderson cooper and alexander, that abortion issues. and mistreating people and this

kind of a anderson and i'm what is she talking about in my supposed to say that and the efforts. >> she will be using those terms i predicted ten years but in 2021 that was 2021, and she is exactly the cohort that in talking about but somebody is a wider influence, watch. >> is time for one last question. >> please bear with my language in trying to say something really important and i think the more comfortable the things that you guys are uncomfortable with the latest collection to the country pretty regarding this issue in the spring of this book festival in such from india village in india and the english

population not to go over try to buy 1 million or something but what of the case very much like two years ago and clean city becoming something else but again the s speaking of. so whatever which i can admire humiliation the tradition of this and that, which i would totally prevent as global order, looking at it in a different lens. so something full teaching us and letting us listenen for fre. the places they charge hundreds of dollars to attend one of these events printed when your strength later on i would like you to think about how you can influence the social change when put to make the world a better place. in your so negative but

absolutely not be 17 well wouldn't have time to talk about that we know that negative things like well but and i think they do not address this my small world and you know i don't keep is to watch. eight close attention to my best homework predict and they don't address these think. >> would you mentioned. >> like it's like five hours from india was the language. >> tibet. >> which one. >> refugee. >> which dialect. >> okay and is 25 different languages really so you are from okay. [inaudible]. >> 's. >> i think the answer to your i question is terms of how to get

things out there, so michael, that's not very 2024, you should be interested in one tweeting ty the atmosphere of the states, that is a way to get people to listen to you t and then podcast together podcast get it out there most people lie about ten minutes out for the listen rather than to read as just the way it's going toe. be so puttig people's ears. [inaudible]. >> it does not matter, all you have to do is practice used to sitting in front of a microphone and just be yourself which is easier now than it used to be. you will be able to get to people essentially people on the young side but that's what you want to do.

[inaudible]. >> and someone said to me and actually yes it is city i was of the smithsonian doing an internship in 1987, and asked, how do you know all of these people know all of this about you hangct is that around this and we mean by that he said i hung around it so you just hang around someone to be today, we just hang around keep and something will almost certainly happen. >> were goingwe to hang around r one have more minutes to give abigail the last question. >> thank you. so in some cases progressives bad or offensive terms and military place them in the cases they will claim these bad words to give them a new standard positive connotation. it'sdo an easy anything to the political moral framework for

why sometimes the actavis will take on the other. >> actually that's just a matter of all days versus new days and takings. a slower and reclaiming it and making positive and examples are all profane but we are knowing what it is you know that is that's what people used to do we saw the visit psychologically healthy including the inward and there's the female versions and lately, is that is that you say do not usee the word change it to something else that you weren't aware of before youou knows that something else in your night ahead of the curve and that is exactly it. and reclaiming was normal and i think that what psychologist would expect is also something that you see languages all over the word for countrymen and italian pretty. >> they call each other no leaks, like man observed in class they call each other pastors and sons of — infection

this term also is that in the motorway which one might have questions perhaps you take it or you would ity something funny ad warm. >> thank you all very much for turning out and thank you.
