On the one side we have the free personality: by definition it is not neurotic, for it has neither conflict nor dream. Professor Lancelot Hogben ( Interglossia).ДЈ. Above all, we cannot play ducks and drakes with a native battery of idioms which prescribes egregious collocations of vocables as the Basic put up with for tolerate, or put at a loss for bewilder. Professor Harold Laski ( Essay in Freedom of Expression).Дў. I am not, indeed, sure whether it is not true to say that the Milton who once seemed not unlike a seventeenth-century Shelley had not become, out of an experience ever more bitter in each year, more alien ( sic) to the founder of that Jesuit sect which nothing could induce him to tolerate. I number them so that I can refer back to them when necessary:ДЎ. They are a little below the average, but are fairly representative examples. These five passages have not been picked out because they are especially bad вЂ“ I could have quoted far worse if I had chosen вЂ“ but because they illustrate various of the mental vices from which we now suffer.

Modern English, especially written English, is full of bad habits which spread by imitation and which can be avoided if one is willing to take the necessary trouble.

The point is that the process is reversible. It becomes ugly and inaccurate because our thoughts are foolish, but the slovenliness of our language makes it easier for us to have foolish thoughts. It is rather the same thing that is happening to the English language. A man may take to drink because he feels himself to be a failure, and then fail all the more completely because he drinks. But an effect can become a cause, reinforcing the original cause and producing the same effect in an intensified form, and so on indefinitely.

Now, it is clear that the decline of a language must ultimately have political and economic causes: it is not due simply to the bad influence of this or that individual writer. Underneath this lies the half-conscious belief that language is a natural growth and not an instrument which we shape for our own purposes. It follows that any struggle against the abuse of language is a sentimental archaism, like preferring candles to electric light or hansom cabs to aeroplanes. Our civilization is decadent and our language вЂ“ so the argument runs вЂ“ must inevitably share in the general collapse. Most people who bother with the matter at all would admit that the English language is in a bad way, but it is generally assumed that we cannot by conscious action do anything about it. It has never been easier to support our work.
