Where things get odder and more interesting though are in the user dictionary and in the setting for the personalised 'AutoCorrect'. User dictionaries are not repressed by the language of the dictionary in the same way that if you wear a stereo you can spend enough time in a crowded train, headbanging, farting and beating your fingers on things or in the street yapping and gesticulating into your hands-free mobile without the constraint of the audial conditioning of your physical location. This is of course the same domain that an enlightened Kant allows for reason within discourses circumscribed by the securing rule of the prince rather than that of the headset. Room to manouevre. In order to escape this position, users incorporate the dictionary and the thesaurus into every grain of their text, running verbs, prepositions, nouns, the lot, through the mill of red and green lines.
Every possible utterance becomes a combination on look-up table results.
Global English, fuelled by digitisation and a ready supply of standard components simply becomes a permutation of all potential combinations. In this way, given no direct resource to the production of a local field of variation, they cut loose even from dialect. The divergence from the normalised language of the world is potentially immensified as these pockets of mistake, homonymy, dyslexia, takes their time to inbreed and thicken their juices before lurching out into the supposedly clean white substance of language under telecommutation. At the same time another private mutation is being hatched. Microsoft's recent alliance with Real Names is an attempt at a rigidification of language to the point at which it becomes solely data.
