English would benefit from using tilde and other inflection marks, especially to help non natives predict syllable stress.

Having words from multiple languages integrated into English means it’s difficult to predict how words will be pronounced.

and the dumb kids, unfortunately. I did a spot with some non-US teenagers, in a class recently. The topic was "name a person you admire and why". Guess whose filthy name came up...

No, they don't do that. They bring up one of the fundamental problems underlying everything, when you ask a question directly related to that said problem. You didn't ask about the weather, you asked about corporate slop.

I don't know if you're being funny, or just oblivious, but you surely must see how some people could arrive at the opinion that adverts are the scourge of modern society?
