Just an idle thought, why do folk say so and so has given birth to a baby girl/boy, you cannot give birth to an adult, why not just given birth to a girl/boy. I guess it is just convention/habit, even more strange when they say given birth to a little baby girl/boy, it's never a big baby girl / boy. I don't have an issue with this just interested in how we communicate events. As an aside one thing that does bug me is the standard now almost universal greeting "ALLRIGHT" I assume this is a shortened version of HELLO are you all right.
