Language is always changing. At one point ‘an apron’ was ‘a napron’ while words like ‘literally’ are no longer literally literal. What are some language battles that have been lost in living memory and what are some others you predict will soon occur?
Edit: Non-english examples very welcome!
We were taught single space in the mid 90s, so that can’t be too recent.
I learned on a typewriter in '91, we got docked if we didn’t double space.
I was taught two spaces in the 90s and didn’t find out it’s changed until maybe a couple years ago.
It hasn’t changed, you were just taught an overly specific application and not taught that it was such.
