good morning
ladies and gentlemen.
This is just some
of the language that people have to listen to
almost every day, and don't fell it is very appropriate.
I am speaking here today to inform the general
public on the appalling growth of course language. This increase of course
language has occurred amongst all different age groups. I believe That the
language of tomorrows society is
determined fully upon the youth and their parents. I have interviewed 100
people on this topic and this is the top 10 things that they have said........
The general
incline for youth to use bad language is just not in our local area but all
over Australia. As a study from
Robert m. Liebert
1992 says.
In 1992 the
average 2 year-old had a vocabulary of 200 - 300 words which mostly contain
small words like More milk, fall down, yuk, mum and dad.
Now a 3 year old
pre-schooler in contrast, speaks in complex sentences that show a sophisticated
grasp on the rules of language, as well
as a sizeable vocabulary ,More specifically: we went to see uncle bob and he
was sitting on the sofa. And he gave me a box of chocolates.
By the time a
he/she starts the 1st grade the child would have a productive vocabulary and
understand as many as 14000 words. this means that the child has learned 9 new
words every day science he or she started to talk. This rapid increase of
learning to speak does not slow down after this period of time, as a matter of
fact it keeps increasing even more as the child learns to read. by the time
they are 17 they would have a 800000 reading word vocabulary and that means he
or she has acquired an average of 13 words a day.
Now you say what
does this have to do with anything, Well I will tell you--- all these figures
are from 1992 and now in 1996 the figures have dropped by around 13 precent in
all areas, and now new studies show that children know at least 5 course words
by the time they are 6.
Movies are the
main offenders for causing an increase in the course language in society today.
they may seem harmless to some viewers but , the cool thing in the 90s is to
copy like everyone else's speech patterns. For instance I saw a movie with Will
smith as the star and in his movie he said some bad stuff like, "F%%k
you", and then to my surprise I heard that repeated many times in the
foyer. Although people tend to attach swearing to young boys and men ,ladies
are rated just as badly.
Music plays a big
part in the increase of course language in Australia also. This is happening
because songs are containing more and more amounts of course language in there
lyrics, and as you and I know if we like that song ,we start to sing along,
then, in the process use course language.
The television
helps in no way, It sends across a message to the viewers that it is just a big
joke. let me give you an example. An advertisement will contain words that
sound the same as a bad word or phrase like for instants change holy shit to
holy toshiba . Advertising like this is just ludicrous and does not need to be
done.
All the
information give previously is totally unexceptible behaviour. The use of
course language, I feel should be outlawed, a student at school would be
punished for using course language, so why not let them be punished if it
happens some where else. The police are to lenient when it comes to swearing
all you get for using this appalling language is a slap on the back of the hand
and sent on your way. offenders would
complain if they were lock up for swearing , so don't, just make them do community service or something
on that line. This problem of course language will not fix it self, I feel a
really good way to help stop it accruing in our community, would be to start at
home by teaching our own children not to use this language in any way or under
circumstances, then if or when they use it punish them accordantly.
thank you...
