We had our own version in our times. Lingo! Having said that, I do not think our parents had to do much other than wince at the wanton destruction of the Queen's English. Today I am largely left wondering and pondering on the meaning of the words. By the time I figure that out, I am way beyond wincing. It is not even English to begin with! I wonder if the French, Russians, Germans, Japanese, Chinese and other linguistic groups have the same issue! Well, Vidya. We had our own version in our times. Lingo!
