New trends in language

There are new trends set in english usage with the increased popularity of SMS (related to messaging, not the person who sits next to me at office), and chat. I donot follow half the stuff in these messages.

I have been witness to this conversation recently
Person 1: Hey, Catch you at the movie
Person 2: I won't be able to come
Person 1: Gosh! That is bad
Person 2: What is Gosh
Person 1: Gosh is just something people use to express their feeling. It is something like shit

SMS - Shanmugavel said...

As per Oxford Dictionary --
Gosh: (In mild exclamations and other expressions substituted for) God.

Where is "Person1", who was trying to explain "Gosh" using "Shit"..?

Raj, dont bother about trends..

Anyway, I know the reason for this post.. Famous dialogue in the tamil movie, "Vaali" ...
"Ponnun-gallukku theriyum-nu solra ambalai-ah vida, theriyaathu-nu solara ambalai-ah thaan romba pidikkum..."
So, "Neenga theriyaathu-nu solrathaala, avangaley ongalukku solli-kuduthu appadi ippadi-nu periya romance pandidalaam"

;o)
