Inflationary Language written by Victor Borge. Victor Borge: Many years ago in Denmark we had inflation, and you are familiar with that problem. In inflation, we have numbers rising. Prices go up. Anything that has to do with money goes up...except the language.
Danish comedian Victor Borge (1986) first intro duced the notion of inflationary words in an effort to match language to economic trends. He reminds us that English "is your language; I'm just trying to use it." Borge suggests that we inflate words as a proactive measure, since inflation (like taxation) is inevitable.
