Discussion Groups / British English / January 2007

It is good to see the American dialect expanding with the addition of new and
unique words.

It is good, also, when English dialect does likewise but there is little need
for the one to do so by scrounging words from the other - I am certain both
dialects are capable of their own unique expansion.

In English dialect, 'plutoed' might not be appropriate for demotion or
devaluation as in its origins, it is without effect.  By this, I mean that if a
thing or person is demoted or devalued, there is often some loss of worth to the
thing or person in a financial sense.  In the case of Pluto, it cares not how
small life forms on another planet care to classify it - it is unchanged.

Not here, it won't. See my header.
