It's the future. Should/would/could/might have will be obsolete soon, replaced by could of, would of, might of, etc. The ever changing language.0

As an English language teacher, I can confirm that the grammar and vocabulary is changing and Americanisms make teaching a pain in the a#%e.0

I'm happy when language evolves for good reasons but this is pure ignorance and not confined to the so-called 'uneducated'.

Language changes and always has. We would hardly be able to understand the english used by past generations. It changes faster and more noticeably now because of greater cultural pressures and technology. It irks me too but foresooth there are worse things to be concerned about.0

But the biggest causes of change (certainly over the last decade) are ignorance and laziness.

I can understand why people get annoyed with journalists struggling to get their grammar right as its their job, but when people pick holes in fellow supporters posts it gets my goat. Would you go up to a fat man drinking a beer in the North Stand and say "better put that down fatty, does no good for you cholesterol". Didn't think so.0
