When a language is undergoing corruption, its speakers believe it is being brought up to date.
In the youthfulness of contemporary prose there are views of carcasses.

    The original Spanish is:

    Cuando un idioma se corrompe sus parlantes creen que se remoza.
    En el verdor de la prosa actual hay visos de carne mortecina.
