True, but on the other hand, don't you think that is why we are here typing our thoughts into a world wide web? The very nature of language is to bring about change. Granted, it is happening at lightspeed in the present era, and we only notice because of the speed with which the change is happening, instead of it taking generations or centuries for a language to change a culture, and nobody really notices it happening during a single lifetime.
Do you think that although a word or pronounciation may change, that the concept remains the same? Or does the loss of the word somehow lose the concept?
