Such a timely and accurate discussion of words and how we use them. Language and what it can do, how it can inspire, how it can bring elusive truth to the fore, how it can enable understanding, is so important. It’s being degraded more and more with abbreviations that make meaning minimal and destroy nuance altogether, and, yes, we are surrounded by increasing ‘ugly mouths’: crudity and profanity. Language is being abused and in turn abusing. For me, I like best candour mixed with dignity. Eternal vigilance is necessary to preserve not only tradition, but also the dignity and humanity of a human being. Thank you for your discussion on Shavuot.
