Closed word class
Hmm...
can anyone think of examples of new vocabulary being admitted to the closed word class recently? I think there was one in Brazilian Portuguese, but i've forgotten it. I'm specifically looking for new pronouns.
you guys are so great and speedy! thanks!
ETA: i was thinking of "a gente", but i can't find any info on how it came into use or when...google fails :(
