my proper SLP colleague would refer to many people as 'sloppy talkers' because the mumble, slur, etc.

I think it comes from lack of phonics & spelling. Students don't have to be conscious of the letters & sounds anymore, anything goes.

we actually had a very well paid reading coach at our school, when the kids were stuck on a word, her answer was to GUESS🙄

language is a code, but liberals don't understand that. and it's impossible to change their minds because the 'system' supports the nonsense.
