The English language has been evolving for
, if not for millennia. Conversations from the Middle Ages would be almost

. The British charity Oxfam has issued a guide that further pushes for
in how the language is used,
by charity workers. Oxfam wants to "decolonise" English, which it considers to be, "the language of a colonising
". It said English needs to change "in order to decolonise our ways of working and shift
". Oxfam has issued a 92-page "Inclusive Language Guide" to advise
on the use of language "to support everyone to feel empowered to be
in their work".
