The language we use today is certainly not the same as the language handed down to us by our figurative forefathers. The language we use today is a culmination of the popular usage of words and concepts by the culture as a whole. What may be correct in one region would be considered incorrect in another, however, within the organism that is language it could still be considered "right". The rules for this creature then are not simply codified for all to absorb but instead are picked up along the road of life. What is correct is simply that which society accepts. What is wrong today may be acceptable tomorrow and the rule further down the path.
