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.

They call me ALOOF, but I hope you aren’t when it comes to adopting words in need.
Working with your new found word Here’s the thing, once a word is adopted, you cannot simply accept it in your vocabulary, and then leave it to fade away in the confines of some notebook somewhere. Words and phrases need to be nurtured, feed, taken for walks, allowed to socialize and become a true part of your family of words. How can you do this? Well, words belong in sentences, so allow the word into your regular conversations, your writings, your thoughts, even. Give it a sentence to live in, not a death sentence. Like most new parents, mistakes can be made and you may even misuse a word. Don’t worry if this happens from time to time. New words take time to get to know you. Find out what that word can do. You may have thought that you only picked up a noun at the Word Shelter, but that noun could (with a little encouragement, and a change of form) work just as well as an adjective, an adverb, or even an exclamation! Most importantly, spend some time feeding your use of the word by studying its likes and dislikes. At first you may believe a word is only is denotative meaning, but very soon you’ll not only adopt that word that is described in the dictionaries, but you’ll also be able to get a good feel for its connotation. Before long, you’ll be able to liltingly use the word in sentences, paragraphs, and perhaps even by doing so, that you’ll be able to find your voice in leaning the full functionalities of this word.
House Visits. In order to make sure you and your new friend are getting along, house visits will take place in forms of quizzes.

Why Adopt? Words and Phrases make great companions. Loyal, trustworthy, able to adjust to your needs, words and phrases will make you a better you. Just think of it his way, where would you be without your furry little bundle of verbosity? Probably silently sitting in an inaudible corner of your existential crisis. When you want to scream out, what do you turn to? Words, right? When you want to express that special thought to that special someone, phrases are your besties, aren’t they? Without them, you’d be limited to sighs and vocalizations without meaning, and if anything gives this crazy thing called life meaning, words and phrases are on the job. So, for a small investment of your time, shouldn’t you give words props for making your existence noteworthy, and something worth writing home about. Adopt a word or phrase today, and change your life forever.

SENTENTIOUS is my name, and that is how I will affect your life. Looking forward to being part of your family.

You can call me INVOCATION, which is the action I am doing right now as I hope you will welcome me into your home.

| Parliament (Sabor) from the 13th to the 19th century (1847). The oldest preserved records of the parliamentary sessions (Congregatio Regni totius Sclavonie generalis) – held in Zagreb (Zagabria), Croatia – date from 19 April 1273. An extensive Croatian Latin literature exists.
Dying Languages ENDANGERMENTS
“Dead Languages” The question of Latin’s place in the world is an interesting one. If one takes the definition of a living language to be one that has native speakers (i.e. language which is passed on from parent to child as the first language), Latin could be considered a dead language. However, if one takes a broader look at usage, Latin is alive and well in schools, hospitals, law offices, and most notably inside the other languages. This fact rings true despite the reluctant scholars verse found in many a Latin text book: Latin is a language, Dead as Dead Can Be, First it Killed the Romans, Now It’s Killing Me. To Drive this point home, Latin has a long standing presence in modern Europe, with the Holy See (i.e. The Catholic Church) still officially using it in the diocese. Here are a few modern examples of its official use: Holy See – used in the diocese, with Italian being the official language of Vatican City Hungary - Latin was the sole official language of the Kingdom of Hungary from the 11th century to the mid 19th century, when it was replaced by Hungarian in 1844. The best known Latin language Croatia – Latin was the official language of Croatian Above Right: My name is PERPETUAL, and that’s how long I’ll love you for. Below Right: They call me DIRE, and I’m in that kind of need of your love and affection. Center Bottom: RESTIVE and STOUT will both fill your heart.

SUPPLEMENTAL BY E. DEMOTT WORDS SUCH AS ZOUNDS (ARCHAIC) AND BLOODY (STILL IN USE IN THE UK AS AN EXCLAMATION) HAVE A COMMON BLASPHEMOUS START. BOTH WORDS ARE “CORRUPTIONS.” THE FORMER STARTED OUT AS HIS WOUNDS, AND EVOLVED INTO HISWOUNDS. EVENTUALLY THE HI WAS DISMISSED, MAKING IT SWOUNDS, PRONOUNCED ZOUNDS, WHICH IS ULTIMATELY THE RESPELLING OF THE WORD. LIKEWISE, THE LATTER EVLOVED FROM HIS BLOOD TO HISBLOOD TO SBLOOD, BUT THEN DROPPED THE S ALTOGETHER, LEAVING BLOOD, OR ANY VARIANT OF IT (SUCH AS BLOODY). BOTH WERE CONSIDERED MINOR SWEAR WORDS, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE “HIS” ORIGIN AT THE START OF THE WORDS REFERRED TO “HIM” WITH A CAPITAL “H”, OR JESUS,THE CHRIST. Corruption or bastardisation are terms popularly used to refer to certain changes in language which originate from human error or alleged prescriptively incorrect usage. Descriptive linguistics typically avoids using these negative terms, since from a scientific point of view such changes are neither good nor bad.

SOME TIPS on CARING FOR YOUR WORD OR PHRASE. -
-
-
-
Guess the meaning: Sometimes we get so caught up in doing it right, that we forget there is a gut instinct at play, and guessing the right thing to do means we are using all our prior knowledge to get as close to the right thing as possible. Often we’ll be “wrong,” but guessing is a good starting point. Do Research: Look it up in a good resource. This will help you with accuracy and let you know how close you were to getting it right. “Take it for a walk” Use the word or phrase in normal situations, like sentences and paragraphs. There’s a phrase that says: use it or lose it, and this is very true with words and phrases. The point of studying words isn’t so you can pass a quiz or test, but so that you can be more effective readers and writers. Relate it: Finding similar words and phrases that you know well and matching it with your new found word or phrase will help you take ownership of your new found friend. Give it a feel: Connotations (Positive / Neutral / Negative) allow you to use the word or phrase in the right circumstances and help you avoid their misuse. Afterall, words and phrases are all about communication, and communication includes feelings, tone, word choice, etc. Start a KiSiN’ Chart to mark your progress. K stands for “Know It” / S stands for “Seen It” and N stands for “New”. Study the words that are more difficult more; get more details on the words that you’ve seen before; refresh your memories on the words that you know
