ImageSMART TALK
by Dr. Soto Voce

DEPRECIATE IN VALUE:  We hear lots of recession talk in our little Texas town.  However, the Institute for the Linguistically Impaired is Underbelly's biggest employer and, sadly, may grow still more.

Our patients worry that their property has depreciated in value.  We retrain them to just say depreciate.  Then we brace ourselves to hear them worry that market values may descend down or drop down even more.

We're concerned that English is doing the same thing.
