Debate: The silly slip
Speech bubbles
Talking about words
Inspired by Word4Word, our community discussed language in the forums. Join in with some points for debate.

I am interested in what causes the sense of words to change. E.G Silly at one stage meant blessed yet has associations with foolishness. Any one any ideas on changes in sense?
