[quote=GURTY,37021]Aha. My opinion. We can't hold that a language is dead if it uses the existing words to express a new gismo, as the meaning is changing. 飞机 means airplane, rather than any existing things. That's it. Even the existing words change in its meaning. For example, 抽象--abstract Now, students in universities use the word to mean ugliness of a person. Many cases go this way.[/quote]
