Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Language Drift is the process by which languages change and evolve over centuries or even decades. Accents, dialects, vocabulary, even basic pronunciation can undergo dramatic shifts in as little as a few decades, and when the span is longer the changes can be even more pronounced. Add on top of that the changes in slang, memes and pop-cultural references, and two individuals separated in time by as little as a century can be almost unintelligible to each other despite allegedly speaking the same tongue. |
