One of the dangers is that the boundary between oral and written speech is eroded. You could feel relatively calm, if when recording the spoken word "moved up", becoming richer and more diverse. But it turns out something just the opposite: primitiveservlet writing. The beauty of informal communication is clear to all, and no one offers to write hexameters. No supernatural action is not needed. It is sufficient to remember the existence of, say, subordinate clauses. This alone does not allow speech to be miserable. Look at the language of the chat. Having a formal relationship to written language, it consists entirely the denominative sentences and interjections. And many people develop the habit of writing that way. They carry her on the written word in General.

... The memories of Joseph Brodsky, a neighbor of N. J. Mandelstam (and responsible martirosyana) was in the Pskov communal woman by the name of netsvetaeva. Nothing is more striking in terms of matches I have not seen.

Acquired from the literature facilitates... experience life in all the richness of its possibilities. From exploring Paris to life on a desert island.

Explaining the invasion of foreign words, they say sometimes that in life there were many phenomena which simply do not have the symbols. In fact, however, it is not so. Even for a computer we had forgotten now the acronym - computer (not saying that it is somehow especially attractive, but - there!). Now, using the computer, obtained from a random sample of loans in a variety of areas: biker, banner, blockbuster, bodybuilding, boyfriend, broker, gamer, dealer, drive, image maker, the killer, a co-sponsor, lifting, logistics, marketing, mainstream, notebook, online, pub, peeling, piercing, price list, promoter, remake, wrestling, roaming, speechwriter, spray, styling, townhouse, a teenager, talk show, top model, trimmer, fire, fitness, freestyle, hangout, chat. I think any unbiased person will agree that for many words from the list (I repeat, random!) there are Russian equivalents. As a mental workout offering to find them right now. Why such a workout is neglected by those who make these words into our lives?

Why are so many borrowed words? Because our country is so well know foreign languages? Obviously, that's not the reason. It is rather the opposite. Foreign words often love just those who not know other languages. Using borrowing, they seem to allude to the fact that they in some way involved in the foreign language field. In the minds of these people borrowed vocabulary as would compensate for their ignorance. A kind of foreign language to the poor.

As a treat, in particular, to borrowing? I, as well as for consumption in General: consider it acceptable as long as it goes for the future. If there is a slight indigestion, from exotic fruit is better to refuse.

Speaking about our passion to borrowing, not to mention another important factor: our inferiority complex. Sounds harsh, but in fact because they are right, and language - impartial witness. If we want the thing (the phenomenon) "was impressive", it certainly referred to as after the English manner. You can imagine the same Russification English? It turns out that in the world we still feel out of place. Our pretentious names designed to indicate the similarity with the strange samples, in fact, indicate only one thing: the secondary. The desire to appear "on the ruble more expensive," looks pretty silly. Why? Doesn't the culture we have created does not allow us to be self-sufficient?

But most of all Utkina was irritated by the loud voice of the employee, which was heard in all areas. Including those where it was not. She responded to all replicas. She answered all the questions - not even to her converted, because questions to her for a long time nobody spoke. Talked about summer vacation, the repair of cottages, the children (starting with youngest) and the parrot, which fell silent only under is applied to a cell with a handkerchief. Removed from his shoulders the shawl and showed how throws it at the cage. Birthday gave her a large Pavlovo Posad shawl, but to explain the meaning of the gift ashamed.

Acquainted with us, Hans-Peter said:
- You know, for friendship to care.

... Advantage of one - that's how life often are the result of limitations of the other. Otherwise, what are these advantages?

- Nothing you're looking for?
He lifted his head and I saw his eyes. In them there was neither sadness, nor anger, nor despair. In them there was nothing but serenity.
"No," he pointed to the wineries, I found everything.

Of course, the grammar is largely a Convention, and the misspelled word cannot be regarded as a criminal act. Similarly, right speech itself is not evidence of high moral qualities of the wearer. But it is an undeniable sign of his affiliation to a certain cultural and social level, the exam, which each of us takes every minute.

The bag, of course, untied, and out jumped the pig. The size of a small dog. Implausible pink. He ran across the platform from side to side and desperately grunted. His grunting came through undisguised pleasure: so the only grunt with pleasure. The harsh peasant, without loss of dignity, moved over the pig. He was not chasing him, and put on his way, his huge boots, and the pig froze. Perhaps that is as it should be to catch the piglets. Taking the pig in his arms, the peasant threw his bag. Silent before Luba turned to us and said distinctly, "That's democracy".

Computer - area of freedom. Freedom from censorship, but sometimes - alas - from the grammar rules. ... Never before in front of our eyes were not such a number of illiterate texts. The errors that existed previously only in private correspondence, are now available to the public. They assimilated and replicated.
