The more people use words, whether jocularly or seriously...
like "irregardless," which first appeared in Pogo, didn't it? That word got legs. Still gets on my tits when I hear it, I must say....that and "anyways" (among a handful of others).
But surely this is good news? -
But the most frequently used word on the planet, whatever the native language, is still "OK."
I mean, given what it COULD have been?! It's more embettered than, say, the ol' "f-word." And it's definitely more embettered than "NO," yes?!
