    Whatever happened to “I love you“? Has this become one of those over-rated phrases in the english vocabulary?

    I am fully with you on the 5, 2 and 1 most important word(s).

    Please and Thank You are the most important words / terms to me! Without them civilisation wouldn’t exist!

    Is this in your opinion John or are these from a survey of some description? Please and Thank you are definately the most important words in the english language, and if they are not the most used, they should be. By the way I have just stumbled upon Johns blog and have a had a read through a few posts and the way it is set up. I like how the blog seems personal and its nice to see, hoping to stick around and get to know everyone.

    I think “I am proud of you!” is definitely my most important word of the list. I try to say that to my son everyday, because I am so proud of him.
