Here are a few: youse (no such word), off of (Americanism), would of instead of have (just unbelievable). As a linguist I do understand how languages change, but it's very sad.ViewDate:

Are you plagued by nuisance phone calls?I've started to get calls from different numbers, both UK and overseas which are unrecognised or withheld. If I answer there's either no one there or when I ask what it is about, they hang up. I have checked online and a lot of people are getting these calls. There is no attempt to get information or sign me up to anything so it's baffling.
