English is the language for the future because it's already been been
so changed by other languages that it would be difficult to find
another language more readily adaptable to change yet so readily
understood everywhere in the world.

You're a fucking idiot.  English has never been and never will be
"cleansed", and the only reason you think some of the expressions we
use are strange is because you're so provincial you can't or don't
want to see the reason or the humor behind the expression.  Which
expression(s) did you have in mind, anyway?

Not only a fucking idiot, but an envious, pompous little bitch as
well, huh?
English never has been our "property", it never will be, and by being
used it'll evolve all by itself with or without the help of goons like
you who'd like to think your "edicts" will have anything to do with
its evolution.  
ISTM that you need to learn how to be grateful for the gifts that
you've received instead of begrudging where they came from.
