Language evolves - and I admire the initiative of the advertising executives who gave us 'lite' and 'lo' and only wish the rest of us could bring English into the land of phonetics. Twould be brillig, would it not? We teach what we know, and since I presume most of us do not know globlish, we won't teach it. Would that I could. Latin club, anyone?
