These Lexiconical Items are in want of a Domicile

WORDS ARE DYING AND ONLY YOU CAN HELP

RESCUE A WORD OR PHRASE TODAY!

The Abomination Words might feel like an abomination; maybe if they looked like cute little puppies, you’d be more willing to make them part of your home. Throughout this campaign, therefore, pictures of puppies will litter (no pun intended) this document, so that you can consider an adoption today.

When you believe that you don’t need words, just know that Words Need YOU!

See: Archaic Words for more examples on the destruction

Issue Date Our Mission Every word needs a home, or else it will die. Sure, new lingo is born regularly in slang and text speak, but when a word dies it becomes archaic, and when it becomes archaic it means there will be no users of the word. No users means that a way of communicating disappears, which means, yes, we cannot say our thoughts as well as we’d like to. Sentiments that are impossible to communicate means that we, as people, grow further apart rather than closer together. Is it possible that good communication means closer ties, and those closer ties means world peace. Adopt a word today, and save humanity.
