The document discusses the influence of the 1930s on the English language. Due to the economic depression after the 1929 Wall Street crash, new words like "hyperinflation" and "Hoovervilles" emerged. When Hitler rose to power in Germany, words from Nazi propaganda like "Fuhrer," "Gestapo," and "Aryan" were adopted. As World War 2 began in 1939, English took on wartime terms like "evacuation." Plastic surgery also advanced during this period due to injuries in World War 1, and the word "face-lift" was first recorded in 1939.
