hey guys, can you please help me out? lol it's a bit late to be asking questions but better late than never right?
-does doublespeak/euphemisms fall under the subsystem of semantics, or lexicology or both? i thought it was semantics because words are substituted with others that have more positive connotations, but i wasn't sure.
-is the tendency in Australian English to say 'me' instead of 'my' (e.g where's me hat?) an influence from Cockney, Irish or both? and does this fall under the subsystem of syntax?
-does primary accent mean stress?
and we can't write in dot points for the s/a can we?

i emailed my teacher on friday and he STILL hasn't replied. so annoying. and i gave him 7 essays to correct..he's only corrected 4  :tickedoff:
sorry, just complaining.
thanks for help  :)
