Sin does mean sin so yeah. I believe in grammatical evolution.I don't. I believe in grammatical creation (
Remember... I'm 12. My vocab ain't so good.). In other words if you need a new description, make a new word or composite word. In todays "grammatical evolution" the word 'literally' now has a definition that is the exact opposite of literal. "That art piece literally took my breath away."
This is not evolutionary, it's revolutionary. "The word doesn't mean that. Still doesn't mean that. Okay, I guess enough idiots have used the word that way, let's put it in the dictionary."
