What's the difference between telling people the 'truth' in good old anglo saxon language and people who slander others in ever so polite queens english?

Kirsty in my book slander is not 'just a harmful statemet' it is an offense under the law, but i see what you mean

The slanderers will have an excuse to focus on the Anglo Saxon bit and deflect from their own truly disgusting observations and opinions. Nit picking, by petty morons.

No one speaks Anglo-Saxon anymore. That language was spoken in Britain from the mid 5th century up until the Norman Conquest of 1066.
I think what you really mean is 'plain English' rather than Queens English.
And the difference is that answering a question in plain English is being honest and helpful, the latter is just simply being unhelpful and arrogant.

The difference is one is more acceptale than the other...
The truth is based on fact
Slander is just a harmful statement, based on opinion and not fact...
The latter is generally used in a provactive way intentionally to offend.
Star for you...!!
Because thats what this is about, you saying I can see what you mean, and not saying...No, you're wrong and im right...Had a bad bad Q & A day today with a load of abuse of a stranger...uncalled for... so thank you.

slander others is bad. i know. there is no diffence. Arrrrrrrg. It isn't that long until Halloween you must know. Time to do something special. Hope that helps you. the slander hasn't learned that what goes around comes around. the karma thing really is true. bad things happen to bad people. i make sure of that as often as possible. like good people.

The truth is always better. Slander can be more painful to the person concerned.

The first is someone trying to be helpful, the second is someone trying to make his or her self look good at someone else's expense.
