Ugh!

There are certain words and phrases which I avoid using because of the people - politicians, social workers, journalists, who have used them: 'named for' instead of 'named after', 'convinced him to do something' instead of 'persuaded him to', 'unacceptable' instead of 'wrong' or 'evil', 'culture' instead of 'religion' or 'superstition'. I also eschew  'homophobia', islamophobia' and other loaded words.

A bit like a warm lavatory seat.
