When people misuse anxious and eager. They are not interchangeable.
And the other big thing is when people turn adverbs into adjectives. The Apple ads - "Think Different" nearly drove me mad! It's differentLY!!! It's an adverb!!!

These are alright to say when 'cuttin' up and 'playin'...but some people actually, seriously pronounce these words this way...which is the whole reason why we say them when were cuttin' up...

My past neighbor who died at 89 used to say, 'back up in there' at the end of each sentence. Now that's infectious if you get started saying that.
I'm with Stevo -- the new annoying word is 'Extreme'. Take no offense if the name of your shop is 'Extreme Graphics!'
Remember when 'rebate' arrived on the scene. It was when Gerald Ford was president, and to my knowledge he probably made the word up, because I never heard anybody mention the word prior to that.

Our neighbor with the "back up in there" was a hoot! He would really insert it in every sentence!! "Like" used as every other word drives me nuts! "You know what I mean?" is mine! I know I do it, I don't like it and STILL I say it! Similar to this: I knew someone who pronouced A BUNCH of words wrong all the time, and would correct others when they pronounced them right! POO-ber-de instead of puberty was one that I can remember. One time, when we spent the week with her, I made a list, it annoyed me so much. Everytime she would mispronounce another one, I would write it down...I guess it was just my way of dealing with it and not confronting her. (It wouldn't have done any good anyway!)

Bill - you'll get a kick out of this:
Main Entry: re·bate Pronunciation: 'rE-"bAt, ri-' Function: verb Inflected Form(s): re·bat·ed; re·bat·ing Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French rabattre to beat down again, from Old French, from re- + abattre to beat down, from a- (from Latin ad-) + battre to beat, from Latin
"To Beat Down".....sounds like all our customers are not asking what the least we would take for our work.....but politely saying, "Joe Blow down the street is offering a substantial rebate for this same job."
Rebate is a nice way of saying, "Will you take less than it's worth? If not, Joe Blow gets the job."

Posted by Bill Diaz (Member # 2549) on :
I knew there was something about that word, Todd. 'Beat Down'sounds like punishment, doesn't it. You can't squeeze blood out of a turnip, but you can 'beat down' the lowly ole sign maker. You can be the hammer or you can be the nail. Lately I've been the hammer. I'm enjoyin' it.
When folks stop by to needle me about this or that, I've been gettin' in their face, just like the old-timers I used to hear about when I was just starting out. I'll bet the word's out by now that I'm independent and this and that. I say give 'em hell all in the name of respect if they deserve it. Demand it! Surround thyself with agreeable customers only and have a good day.

Calling someone's name in a room... "Dere they go..." or "Here I go"... you look to the door but they're actually NOT 'going' they're sitting in a chair...over dere....
Or the ever-impressive: "Here me." is only a step better than, "Here I'm is."

when people use "that" to refer to others, eg "the people that just left were saying..." instead of using "who" .
Adjectives used anytime adverbs are needed, and the worst hate of mine here is "Real", eg "he rode his bike real fast", or "How are you? ", "Real well", when it should be "really" in place of real.

I also object to the suffix "-age" being added to words that it shouldn't be or wasn't in the past.
"I have an infectionage... my signages are suffering from lack of drainage. I better up my dosage of medicationage. Where is that dosage cuppage? The sheetage of directionages seems to be goneage.

I have been hearing that gem from the news commentators, & not only was I sick of hearing that complex word, I didn't know what it meant, so I just looked it up:
Main Entry: jux·ta·pose Pronunciation: 'j&k-st&-"pOz Function: transitive verb Inflected Form(s): -posed; -pos·ing Etymology: probably back-formation from juxtaposition : to place side by side <juxtapose unexpected combinations of colors, shapes and ideas -- J. F. T. Bugental>

New Englanders are the worst butchers of the English language. I've only lived here 12 years and I still can't get my mind wrapped around all the phonic rules and atrocities.
From what I gather it's got a lot to do with the letter "R". If a word has that letter you don't pronounce it. If it doesn't have that letter you have to add it at the end. A drawer is a 'drah'. A girl named Donna is called 'Donner'. My partner Dick tells me his son lives in Cali-phone-yah. A constant source of fascination, Dick also loves mashed 'bu-day-does' and using the company 'dev-it' card (debit card). He's got a million of these head-turners.
