Not only do we define anyways (gasp!), we give the word multiple senses (look away, children!). Is the English language dead and have we killed it? No.

If the English language was dead these pedants would have something of more substance to talk about.
Like you’re singing the praises of a language whose plural for deer is deer and for mouse is mice. It’s not pretty, the rules don’t work, it’s constantly evolving. Saying a word isn’t a word ain’t nothin but classism.
