It has been a number of years - maybe since around 1984 or so. I've been noticing the loss of the word "For". It is now spoken "Fur".

Sad.

I've heard very competent radio personalities, who normally speak and pronounce words very cleanly and very correctly say "Fur" for "For".

"For" is gone. Listen around you - I'll bet you can count on one foot, the number of times in a day when you hear "For" spoken as "For".

Along with this, Photography as become "Furtography" and those who take the pix are "Furtographers".

Sad.

Fur the luva Mike - where is our language going? E-ran?... E-rack?
