My latest socially critical essay is based around the diverse linguistic stratification in modern society. Basically it's hypothetical question dealing with the problem of languages where inflection of a certain syllable or dialect is key. For those people who still have no idea what i'm talking about....it means a word, that when pronounced 2 ways, means 2 different things. I think it is this linguistic fault that will lead to world war III and eventually armageddon. My example.....let's pretend there is a mandarin chinese word, "Yuan". For exemplary purposes let's say when the word is prounounced Yoo- awn, it means "greetings my fellow man". So let's say the language challenge president from america travels to china on a press conference and attempts to display a diplomatic use of his knowledge of chinas language and culture and says to the leader of china "Yuan" buuut he pronounces it Yoo- ANN. and the secondary meaning is "I have violently disturbed and unearthed the graves of your dishonored forefathers and ancestors and proceeded to skull f*ck the chunky JIF peanut butter filling out of their eyesockets and through their spinal column. Therefore I want to begin a National holocaust involving your country in which we feed orange marinated chinese babys in a bowl to Bo' Ray's Big-as-f*ck dog "Frodo".
See the problem with inflection?
