“Literally” Now Also Means “Figuratively”
http://www.salon.com/2013/08/22/according_to_the_dictionary_literally_now_also_means_figuratively_newscred/
Much has been made of the use, misuse and overuse of the word “literally.”
Literally, of course, means something that is actually true: “Literally every pair of shoes I own was ruined when my apartment flooded.”
When we use words not in their normal literal meaning but in a way that makes a description more impressive or interesting, the correct word, of course, is “figuratively.”
But people increasingly use “literally” to give extreme emphasis to a statement that cannot be true, as in: “My head literally exploded when I read Merriam-Webster, among others, is now sanctioning the use of literally to mean just the opposite.”

Re: “Literally” Now Also Means “Figuratively”
Was it literal or figurative that you put the (possessive) noun before the verb?

Re: “Literally” Now Also Means “Figuratively”
Literally is one of those misused and over-used words nowadays like "random"
Everything is "random" now apparently.
Speaking of words and pet hates - I hate it when people say "could of" instead of "could have"
And don't get me started on "your" and "you're"

Preach it sista! I've got reporters turning in stories with quotes that read "could've" or "should've." I always go ahead and edit in that pesky "ha" ...
The your/you're thing is how I decide who to be friends with, actually. If you can't name more than four Beatles songs, don't know you're/your (or they're/their/there) and can't name the countries the U.S. fought in the Revolution and WWII, I want nothing to do with you

Loose, forgot that one!!!!11 You're OK in my book, edds
'Course, my rule is really just for Americans ... the Brit version could be something like knowing what year what Mr. Bean showed the Vicar 'is bum, like ...
I like a corollary my friend once added to this, for dating -- take a date to a cinema with hard floors (no carpet) and during the quietest part of the movie, spill your entire thingy of M&Ms so that they roll down to the front, making as much noise as possible.
If your date doesn't laugh, move on

Hahahahahahha see I'm like that with burps!
If a man can burp my name and a small sentience like "Make us a cuppa edds"
Well, I'm smitten

People don't seem to recognize the perfect and perfect/progressive verb forms, to be and to have. I think the confusion comes from use of the contraction. He is and he has, when contracted become He's. Then when they uncontract the form, they always use the 'is' verb. So 'he has' becomes 'he is' and these ridiculous sentences come out. What should be 'He has been a good player...' becomes 'He is been a good player...'
Drives me crazy.
And I hate the there-their-they're and the your-you're confusion, too. But it's primarily because my own dyslexic brain often types that mistake without realizing it.

Quill there's always mistakes to be made but some people type through ignorance and even if you point it out they continue to be ignorant.
I tell you another one I hate:
He's and his
"His had a great time!"
Arrrrgh! No you muppet! "He's had a great time!"

Re: “Literally” Now Also Means “Figuratively”
OR...when they uncontract, they say: He is had a great time. Should be: He has had a great time. That's an example of my beef with verb misuse. Drives me crazy. The problem is that informal English uses 'He's" as a contraction for both 'he is' and 'he has'...people forget what is the proper root verb.
And also...try who's and whose.
Also: those who use the phrase: "Drives me crazy."

THAT particular Lexicology association lost the plot a long, long time ago..
AFTER all, what business does anyone who can't even correctly spell their own name [i.e. 'Miriam'..] have in even being connected to the development and publication of a dictionary ?
THE fact that American dictionaries by and large ignore the Etymology of words probably also goes a long way in helping to demonstrate just how often they get things wrong.. Especially with that mob who can't even spell their own name properly !!!
Wolfie, have you seen the english comedian Michael Macyntire do a sketch about people's names and their spellings?
If you haven't, Google it.
You'll love it :-)

Bwahaha, Merriam-Webster (named after Noah Webster and George and Charles Merriam) has been owned for the past 50 years by ... Encyclopedia Britannica. Which is, of course, an American company

OH, and I did have a little Webster's pocket dictionary from back in my school days, but I'm not sure where that is at the moment ~ no doubt lurking over the back of my bookshelves in the shadows, just waiting for an opportune moment to leap out and grab one of us Philistines by the throat.
So what are you saying, the Macquarie is good enough but Merriam-Webster is not? Fuck that shit! If it's good enough for Australians to go their own way on the English language, it's by-god good enough for Americans to do the same, dammit.
I say we blame the English for the fact that "buildings" have indeed already been built and "drawings" have indeed already been drawn. But can we call them "builts" or "drawns"? Hell no. Because of the English and their messed-up language

TOO be fair our extra words are just the names of our places and things (often Aboriginal in origin) and slang/insults for Englishmen
We didn't go Dropping Letters from Words
The growing opinion is 'as long as the other person understands'. At least in Sydney where there is a high population of people with English as a 2nd language. I personally Agree because the point of talking is to communicate. it is more important to have the other person understand than to follow arbitrary rules.

Jeeeszz...everyday we have to pick up after the Brits. Colour or color...favour or favor? Y'all threw in too many letters to begin with. Get over yourselves.
Y'all just take too deep a breath. Run around the block 5 or 6 times then come back and let's see how y'all pronounce those words.
Americans have just made the English language more efficient, that's all.
'J-e-w-e-l-l-e-r-y'? Whreaullie? Oh for god's sake!

Not our fault you lot didn't get here for years and someone had to discover your country and even then, all you are is a mixture of "other people".
Now if y'all cannot be bothered to write properly and find long words too difficult then why don't y'all just stay in your trailers and bitch about what a shithole America is?
See? We can all come down to your level and have little digs.
Perhaps y'all are a tad jealous

Excuses, excuses, excuses... We were the original, more mature, more intelligent Brits who went walkabout. We come back to find the babes, left sleeping in their cribs, have wet their nappies and don't know how to change them.
Again we've gotta look after you. It's not proper writing form to add 'ough' when 'oh' or 'ow' will do nicely. And 'draught' for a mug of beer?? You don't even need the 'au', and the 'gh' is decidedly not an 'f' sound--can you imagine trying to say ghuck you, you idiot!. They would take it for a speech impediment and you would be laughed right out of the pub.
This is exactly what the London Times meant when it published that article saying that the Yanks are the ones who have preserved the language. Now fetch some clean nappies and bring them to mum...er, mom.

Literally, what people say and mean can be totally mind boggling. Even more confusing, literally are the politicians. So even new guys popping up here and there, can we literally believe anything they say? ..

EVEN to claim two you would need to add 'Gaelic' into that mix as well ?
