Not only that, but 3000 years into the future, language has changed so much that the plural of SHEEP is now SHOOP

That's right, androids do dream of electric SHOOP

1000 years alone is a wildly long time for language. Granted, written language and education are more accessible than ever, so I imagine language evolution will be significantly slower than it once was, but still I found this short of English over the past 1000 years to be really interesting

It's also possible that audio recording being a thing that exists will slow changes in language as well.
