According to Orwell, The decay of our language has an antidote. Those who deny it would argue, in case they argue anything. That language simply reflects existing social conditions and that we cannot influence in its development directly, retouching words and constructions.
Answer and Explanation:
NOTE: since this is supposed to be a personal answer, feel free to edit and adapt the information to suit yourself.
Have you ever wanted to say something clever (to impress someone), and you couldn't think of anything to say? What kind of emotions did this bring up for you?
Yes, I have. It has happened several times. When I realized I would not be able to come up with anything clever to say, I ended up frustrated and annoyed at myself. However, those feelings did not tend to last long. After some time has passed, I usually realize that my motivation as well as the context would never allow me to say something impressive. Impressive statements normally come naturally, when we feel comfortable with the situation and the topic. If we feel the need to impress, that already makes the context more difficult and uncomfortable, reducing our chances to come up with something good.
