223:The Influences of Journalism
Newspapers and magazines spread the new words/phrases besides producing the new ones.
Their aim is to make their work more interesting by inserting the colloquial styles and slangs.
The magazines spread puns, rhymes, coinages, and hyphenated words.

224:Changes of Meaning
There are four categories in changes of meaning:
# Extension of meaning
# Restriction of sense
# Degeneration of meaning
# Regeneration of meaning

The receivers' prediction might be wider than the original idea.
Example: Lovely and great.

Restriction of sense
Usually, the meaning of the word we use depends on the situation. Though it has more than one meaning.
Example:Doctor

Forms of degeneration:
a) Original meaning is completely lost.
b) The original meaning is still there, but less favourable.
c) The words has changed; same meaning, but more delicate.

Regeneration of Meaning
Slang Standard
Dr Johnson has recorded the words budge, coax, nonplus, shabby, stingy, squabble, tiff, touchy, and wobbly.
Thackery influenced the standardization of snob and sham.
