Funny how things turn around

Words are very powerful.  Translations and interpretations run rapid.  Have you ever experienced a pronunciation of a word that changed depending on where or with whom you spoke? 

Let's just take on example:  advertisement....how many pronunciations and meanings does it have?

How about vandalism=spray paint or signs and pictures=graffiti=graffiti art=street art=murals=commissioned works of art on a wall or side of a building=commissioned art around town?

What words have you seen change during the course of time?  Who comes to mind with each type?

Words and Art= Power and self-expression=create change.....


Thanks for your contributions to this discussion.
