"Nerdic" language is described as the language of technology, producing new terms to national languages.
I ve seen an article on Independent,
saying that this language system is the fastest growing language on all
over Europe. Yeap, it s a reality that, any language have no capability
or dynamics to catch this speed is falling down and also demolishing
the national and traditional cultures in an indirectly way.
My mother
tongue is Turkish and i always insist to use Turkish in a right way.
Sometimes i argue with friends who s not careful in usage of it :) But
it s a pity that any language institue is not working well to save this
language like us.
Thus, English is on the way of being a unique language in all over World.. It s not a turnable way anymore..
Let us look some words now, from the new tech developments:

generation Scart lead that allows you to connect high-definition
devices together, which is also much smaller than the clumpy scart
leads most people have to use.
