Re: Lilium: Conversation

Fair point. You have to keep up with changes in language, otherwise you wouldn't what the bally hell people were saying, and they in turn would be scratching their heads when you popped into the chemists and asked for some costives and prophylatics.
But still I would expect to hear traces of earlier modes of speech echoing in the modern vernacular. Very diffcult to write that convincingly I suppose, but it would be a top buzz if you pulled it off!
