George Orwell's "Politics and the English Language" is a bit confusing at the beginning of the read.
Orwell goes into great detail, letting the reader know his observations on the happenings of the English
language. The reader can definitely pick up on his disappointment of his fellow man's incapability's
of telling the truth. How one can twist and turn a statement or a word to tell a lie, though it sounds as it
may be true.
Our language is as how should be, language is to evolve as we as human being's evolve. Politicians
speak using large vague words that sound truthful and conceiving at the same time. Scientists put their
own scholastic turn on words to make the statement sound more intelligent.
This article is dated 1946, I wonder to myself how Orwell would write about urban slang and
Ebonics.
