Odd

Isn't it odd how in the English language we have recently created many words that have become mainstream from new media and applications. Many of them people like my mother are dumbfounded by and totally don't understand. For example, "I'm tweetering, facebooking, skyping, etc." What made me think of this comes back to me saying a "verb" that someone else just didn't quite understand....I was telling a friend about scraboking with my mother all day Saturday. He had no clue what I meant and told me "Are we just making up verbs now." It is quite hilarious to think about. As a culture we just add -ing to something and fit it into the English language on everything from television to radio. no wonder the English language is so odd and hard to learn...
