Laxicography
lazy or ill-educated use of language (primarily english) by ‘ding-a-linguist’ celebrities as well as political and media dimwits, leading to the widespread acceptance of a new – yet incorrect – meaning for a word or phrase. the method by which a solecism becomes standard english. “quantum leap” “disinterested” and “momentarily” have already p-ssed into the lexicon, and are being followed by “enervate”,
an example of laxicography would be ben affleck’s statement; “i believe it’s been a very successful, enervating and exciting convention.”
enervate is not a synonym for invigorate. it means to weaken or enfeeble. not only did affleck show ignorance by using it when he meant the opposite, he then embarr-ssed himself further when he chided those who questioned his use of the word.
