The Limits Of Language
In the essay, The Limits Of Language, Nicholas Leman agrees with Orwell's 1946, Politics and the English Language essay that clear language can lead to better politics. He agrees that simple, clear and to the point is better than something long complicated and confusing. He adds however that a more frightening thing to him than the corruption of language is the corruption of information. He feels that we should guard and focus more on the corruption of information. I feel that we should focus on both english lanuguage and the corruption of information. I feel that the corruption of english language sometimes twists the truth/facts and that ends up going along with the corruption of information.
