George Carlin on soft language
推荐理由
George Carlin has a funny skit about how messaging has gotten softer over the years that you might enjoy.
说明
这是2008年由Rob Logan发布的一部喜剧,主题归在Stand-up & sketch comedy。它讲的是euphemistic language这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成:A clip from George Carlin's 1990 special 'Doin' It Again' in which he describes how American English has been sterilized with euphemisms, using examples such as shell shock becoming PTSD.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:HN reaches for this clip whenever a thread involves euphemism or corporate and sanitized phrasing.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2015年到2026年,有2位不同的读者在2个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合已经懂这个圈子的梗、想放松看的人。不适合拿来当第一课。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把euphemistic language变成能跟着复述的例子。
