Well, given the alternative, yes I would much rather we spoke like
Chaucer. Much better than the usual conversation heard from people my
age and younger ....
"Yeah, naah wot I mean like. Its all [expletive deleted] up, like,
innit. Y'know."
Granted, speaking like Chaucer or Shakespeare all the time might be just
as bad for other reasons, but at least it wouldn't be quite so offensive
?
