The Demise of The English Language

I decided to write this article after reading some comments left on Youtube, and a few other sites which allow feedback, and although I am not an English teacher, it looks pretty sad for the future of English as we know it. I call it: The “homophonic meltdown.” That’s right; the attack of the homonyms! They’re every wear. (I mean everywhere).

     What is a homophone?

Well, I hate to burst the bubble for some of you who were thinking that a homophone was a person afraid of ringtones. A homophone almost literally means: “Same sound.” Homo, meaning the same (not queer), and phone or phonic, meaning sound – or to here. (I mean to hear). So, of course two words which have different spellings and meanings can sound the same.

     Sew (so), imagine if we were too (to) right (write) entirely buy (by) what we here (hear). It wood (would) be vary (very) interesting to try and make since (sense) of what a person was really trying two (to) say. I have actually red (read) articles from seasoned writers, who have  fallen victim to the “homonymity” witch (which) has invaded our English language. Know (no) wonder its (it’s) so hard for a person who does not speak English.

     Weather (whether) or knot (not) they’re (there) is simply just a total dis-reguard (disregard) for the basics of English (perpetuated by the advent of our “text message” world), or – just plane (plain) ignorance, I am not shore (sure), butt (but), it doesn’t look good four (for) the future of the written word as we no (know) it. And remember: Grammar is not your father’s mother!
