Description
We all have those words that we're working on removing from our vocabulary. Today's question is from a listener keen to know whether 'guys' should be one of them.
Here is the full question that Clementine answers:
As an Australian who lives in Berlin, I have come face to face with my use of the word 'guys'. It's become an important topic among women in my city. I have consciously been trying to avoid using it and it is easy in text, but since it's been a part of my vocabulary all my life, sometimes it slips out while I'm speaking. My question for you is, where do you stand on the word and what is the future of its use in Australia?
