"A very interesting quote on page 187:
"John Adams sought to advance the reputation of the United States abroad by translating the English language into a political weapon… , he proposed the establishment...of the ‘the American Academy for refining improving and ascertaining the English language.’ Adam's logic was simple and straightforward: American English was bound to become the language of the world.”" — May 14, 2023 04:35PM
