    But every language has a constant changing lexicon and a difference between offical and actually used.

      English certainly feels like a lot more fast moving than Norwegian, can’t really speak for other languages. That wasn’t even really my point though

      My point is that a lot of people seems to have rather strong feelings about something that can often simply be an honest mistake from someone who may not even be fluent in English, let alone understanding the finer nuances of the words

        In some that’s true for everyone. Even with in the same language milliseconds can change if you’re precived as rude or not. Many people aren’t aware of this. We Just internalize a rythm and a bunch of rules. Then some one breaks them an they come off as rude or mean. Its just something baked into us.
