    So...............

    Why do so many people use 'so' to start a sentence these days

    so, what I find really difficult is NOT doing it myself

    Where do these verbal 'crazes' come from I wonder.

      Many people now reply to a question by saying 'Right ...' and then answering. Why?

              Can't say I've noticed that one.

              The one that always gets me is when folk answer a question with "Yeah, no..."

              Which is it?

                So, right, well, ummm, okaay, what was I looking for? Unusually, this is one I daren't BB. He does it verbally in Directorate Management Team meetings. It's so long and drawn out I think it's while he's thinking of the next thing he's going to say! So Yeah, no.

                      The one that gets me is people who fill their sentences with "you know" as in

                      "I ran for the bus, you know, and got on , and you know, paid the fare, and, you know, sat down...."

                      If they think I already know, why are they telling me?

                        Yup - that bugs me too. As does 'like' and many other 'teenage speak' words or phrases that are used out of context.

                        "Well, my friend, well, she, like, goes off on one, like, and ya know, I, like, well, I just sat there, laughing, like. Innit?

                              'You know what I mean ' and ' at the end of the day ' are two phrases that seem to be used more and more often . They both bug me , you know what I mean

                              also the word lush .....since when did that change from meaning alcoholic?
