liguistic drift
Most shows and books seem to assume the future, whether sunny, like Star Trek, or apocalyptic, like Mad Max, will continue to speak modern english exactly as we speak it today. I figure that won't happen, particularly after TEOTWAWKI.
I intend to simulate that by having survivors speak ebonics, and trying to get PCs to speak Shakespearean english whenever possible. Over time, they'll learn the degenerated dialect, and the campaign's language will settle down to normal english. Anyone else have any thoughts or ideas on this?
