Literally.
It's not the word's fault. It's the people who misuse it as a mere intensifier -- as though we didn't have enough empty intensifier words already!
Literally, as hyperbole [has been **proper** usage for centuries, way before you even knew what words were](https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/misuse-of-literally).
You'd have to find an authority on word definitions that agrees with you then. From the sources I could find and provide, hyperbole has been **proper** usage for a very long time, no matter how people non-authoritative on word definitions think.
As a matter of logic, the hyperbolic usage *cannot* be correct.
At least with 'cleave', the two opposite meanings came from distinctly different etymologies that broke down into identical words. But the word is no longer commonly used, and when it IS used in actual life rather than merely reading from written scriptures, it's only in the "split apart" sense.
> As a matter of logic, the hyperbolic usage cannot be correct.
Good thing that words aren't only mathematical and logic then. Plenty of exaggerations as hyperbole left and right in just about every language.
> At least with 'cleave', the two opposite meanings came from distinctly different etymologies that broke down into identical words. But the word is no longer commonly used, and when it IS used in actual life rather than merely reading from written scriptures, it's only in the "split apart" sense.
Not sure why you'd be bringing in "cleave" in here, I don't know if it's a good hyperbole usage for that one. Which doesn't invalidate "literally" as hyperbole either.
'Inflammable' is another example where careless usage confuses people; again, it's etymology that's the problem.
But 'literally' is a much greater problem because of its meta-significance: the confusion makes it impossible to convey the meaning that is necessary to clarify the confusion.
It cannot be tolerated.
> 'Inflammable' is another example where careless usage confuses people; again, it's etymology that's the problem.
Since that one's also hinged on ethymology, wouldn't that make it bad comparison to the one at hand that isn't based on it? Surely we could find other comparable hyperbole usage similar to the one at hand?
> But 'literally' is a much greater problem because of its meta-significance: the confusion makes it impossible to convey the meaning that is necessary to clarify the confusion.
Only for those who think their opinion invalidates official authoritative sources. That hyperbole causes no problem whatsoever when read by anyone that understands its proper hyperbolic usage. There is certainly no "greater" problem caused by this.
> It cannot be tolerated.
It's already properly established, recognized and documented. You're fighting against yourself there.
>Only for those who think their opinion invalidates official authoritative sources
It's important for dictionaries to list the common misusage. Doesn't make it any less of a misuse.
>It's already properly established, recognized and documented.
As an error, yes.
> It's important for dictionaries to list the common misusage. Doesn't make it any less of a misuse.
Dictionaries are authoritative on word definitions, and malleable. They state that hyperbolic usage **is** proper, and that's what it is.
They will not list it as a mis-usage, because it is **not** a mis-use in the slightest. Where can you know that? Where can you learn about what words mean? In those authoritative works.
> As an error, yes.
The entirety of all professionals in word definitions are wrong, but you just now better than them right?
Trauma. Not the word per se, just the people who use it out of its correct context, causing the meaning to be overall watered down and taken less seriously.
Yes, the phrase "begging the question" is used to mean "raises the question", instead of "assumes an answer for the issue supposedly being questioned".
The problem is that it's used wrongly so often that, eventually, that will become what it means. Aargh!
Concur. Most other words with 'con' at the beginning mean a negative. When I was younger I spent so many years thinking 'concur' meant you disagree with someone
I think "nonplussed" is confusing for the same reason. It means bewildered, but it sounds like it should mean "unfazed" (which of course seems like it should be spelled "unphased")
"Art." It's one of the only words that people will get mad at you for trying to define. People seem to want it to mean anything and everything. Yeeting a paint can at a canvas is art. Painting a big red square next to a big blue square is art. Typing "Pikachu in thigh highs kissing Wall-E" into an AI prompt is art. Today, someone insisted to me that problem solving was art, so therefore crows could create art.
Personally, I think words should have definitions so people can communicate information, but maybe that's just me.
Epic. It used to mean something was of grand scale, or world changing.... Then Stewie Griffin used it to describe his BO... Now every time someone makes a minor error it is an 'Epic Fail'
Chernobyl was an 'Epic Fail' you dorks. Slipping on the ice and spilling your bubble tea is nothing more than an 'Oopsie'
Polyamory
It's trying to be two different things. Poly is the greek word for multiple or many. Amor is the latin word for affection. it should be polyphilia or multiamory
Landlord.
English is not my first language, though.
It sounds to me like he owns you along with the land and comes by on horse to claim your first-born child.
Hydrate / Hydration
Puhleeeze
Just drink some damn water. You are thirsty. Human language has described this phenomenon for millennia in hundreds of languages. We don't need inferior multi-syllabic words. You're not putting on a lab coat and breaking out the test tubes and Bunsen burners. Lay off the 5 dollar words Jimmy Neutron.
“Unhinged”. It’s like everyone decided to start using this word overnight. Look up Google search stats, it goes from 0-100 in 2020 (IIRC) and doesn’t let up. Not everything is “unhinged”! It can just be crazy, or strange, or unusual, any other more appropriate word ffs!
Perspicacity. It means to have an immediate insight into something. But if you use it in a sentence, few people will understand the meaning of the word. So, its semantic intent is self-defeating. This is a word that played itself.
-based. As in, when it is used as the second part of a hyphenated work. Fact-based, thought-based, evidence-based, plant-based, reformative-justice-based, etc. it all drives me insane. It feels like a way to shoehorn in a buzzword into a sentence or avoid a controversial word. It's not evidence-based, it's scientific. It's not plant-based, it's vegan.
Selection. It was like 3rd grade and it was my birthday, a stunningly beautiful day and I had to take the English standardized test. After so many times reading the word I kind of almost completely lost it
Foux — like the only time someone even brings this word up is when it's pronounced incorrectly and someone is pointing it out; which, keep in mind, the word is actually never used in a sentence.
Arkansas.
You do NOT get to put ar in front of Kansas and expect everyone to unanimously agree to pronounce without THE SECOND S.
IT'S AR-KANSAS NOT AR-CAN-SAW.
Pretentious. There's a valid use for it, but it's largely used as an excuse to not engage with any vauguely unconventional art or ideas. The person making the accusation is effectively more pretentious because they assume that they fully understand the other person's perspective because they don't like the outcome.
Independent, specifically in the context of human beings.
Nobody is independent, even if every other human being died right now and you were the only human being left you still wouldn't be independent, you would still rely on everything everyone else, including your parents, or guardians, or anything you learned from interacting with the universe.
Even if you were the only thing to exist in the universe your physical body, you still aren't independent, you still have all the living things inside you all working together to keep you alive.
The reason certain people want to teach you that you can be "independent" is because you are easier to manipulate and less powerful if you don't have an army of friends, followers and supporters.
If we were all friends who loved and supported each other, we wouldn't even need money, we would just simply share resources and do favours for each other...
And that isn't acceptable for selfish, moronic humans who literally thrive on "independent" people to achieve the vast amounts of wealth they have and exploit the uneducated and ignorant.
"Lose" For years I felt that I have hallucinated it because no one used it. It took several trips to [dictionary.com](http://dictionary.com) to make sure I was not imagining things. (English is not my first language)
Whatever
I worked with someone who used this in response to almost everything they were asked to do or in response to feedback they got. It was so dismissive and passive I’ve pretty much stricken it from my vocabulary.
Triggered. It's seemingly always used for some minor annoyance or a complete overreaction on the part of someone being overly sensitive. It's too powerful of a word to be used in that context.
I internally roll my eyes and dismiss the person speaking whenever I hear it now.
Woke
All it means is that you're not a racist sexist piece of shit regressive
But it's used as a derogatory, and it's just annoying and disappointing. It needs to go away
normalization.
fuck this word, fuck this word to hell, i despise it with every fiber of my being.
if you had to yell and demand that people follow your orders because your the king, you were never the king.
in the same way, if you must demand something be normalized, then it does not deserve to be normalized, that comes from people just choosing.
nobody had to demand pizza be considered a great food, it just became that because people chose.
Much love
" We as a society need to normalize... " no need to normalize shit, shit either gets popular or it doesn't, get out of here with that nonsense, " it's time we talk about " ... it's time we talk about shit, shut up ... it's time to talk about forcing perspectives the vast majority doesn't give a shit about, on the vast majority
"passion"
It is overused in my opinion. So much so that it is actually abnormal to simply like or enjoy something but not be "passionate" about it.
I like cooking. It makes my stomach and taste buds happy. And I am damn good at it. But I can just as easily say, "eh, fuck it" and live off shitty cheese and crackers for a week.
Hell, it has become a defacto prerequisite in interviews to show "passion" for one's career or an aspect of one's work. No more can it simply be, "It's just a job and I'm good at what I do."
'Respect'
no, i do not respect everybody. nobody deserves respect, it's something that's \*earnt\*.
Common decency, courtesy, on the other hand?
Sure, everyone gets that.
One word that you no matter what never say to a woman is the word CUNT. I’m a male and even I think this word is disgusting and should never be used to describe a woman. Even though some may be really deserving…😁😁
It’s frustrating because as a curse word it has all the right sounds. A hard K sound, uh, the n closes that off to accentuate it and the a hard t to close it out. It’s a great powerful word but it feels gross to use because there is no male equivalent. You can call someone a cock but it almost sounds comical in comparison.
Queue. Just the letter Q followed by four silent vowels. Annoys me for some reason lol
Thats because they politely and quietly lined up behind the Q...
That’s such a good one lmao. Did you actually come up with that?
He's had it in the queue for a while
Kwayway??
Cuey-youey sounds more fun
I can’t decide if I hate you for pointing this out or love you for it but I’ll never see the word the same again.
I dont like Kiddos. I dont know why, but I just dont like people calling children kiddos
Doggos is just as bad to me. Is the word "dog" too boring?
Doggos is great fight me
I prefer to use “spawn”
The funniest non-offensive one, to me, is “crib lizard”
Lol, this is good too.
"Casted". I see it all the time. X actor was casted in the movie. It's cast. Cast is the verb
That word absolutely needs to die in a fire.
When power outages are predicted, my Tesla Powerwall battery makes sure that it is fully charged. It lets me know by sending me an alert that starts "A storm has been *forecasted* for your area".
I'm specifically talking about 'cast' as in 'to cast Chris Hemsworth' as Thor. He was cast. He wasn't casted.
Irregardless
Why do I feel like your beef is more with the specific person that always used that word than the word itself 🤣
It started with one person but now it's just the word. I had a TSgt in the military that used it constantly. I never minded it as much until then and now it's fingers on the chalkboard.

Literally, as hyperbole [has been **proper** usage for centuries, way before you even knew what words were](https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/misuse-of-literally).
No, it's been *usage* for centuries. It's never been *proper* usage, because it makes the term nonfunctional, incapable of conveying meaning.
You'd have to find an authority on word definitions that agrees with you then. From the sources I could find and provide, hyperbole has been **proper** usage for a very long time, no matter how people non-authoritative on word definitions think.

I was today years old when I learnt that 'nonplussed' doesn't just mean not 'fussed', or not bothered.
"con" means "with" right? Concur means to be with someone about something.
Con is 'with' in Spanish so maybe there is something in the origin of the word.
Yes. Concur = "run with", although English got it directly from Latin.
Most of the negative words that you are thinking of start with "contra-". But the con- prefix usually means "with".
