    Well to be honest I wouldn't be surprised if English dies down like Latin did and we get a new common-ish language, so I would probably freak out and people would look at me like I'm insane for being the only person able to fluently speak a now dead language.

      It might be a variation of English, but like you said it would be absolutely different. You'd probably sound to them as Shakespeare sounds to us.

        It's somewhat mindblowing to think that variations of "Ayy lmao" and "U wot mate?" could eventually become our future's version of "Shakespearean" English.

          To ayy lmao or to 360noskope, that is the question.
