The power of clear language.

Sounds like Peter Rabbit is a fan.

Did you always think that 'overwhelm' was overwhelmingly a verb?

As in, "I'd love to correct his grammar, but I really don't want to overwhelm him."

Well, as we all know, language changes constantly – if it didn't, thou would be soliloquising using a completely different wordhord.

So you may have noticed an overwhelming use of 'overwhelm' as a noun recently – particular in a business coaching environment or increasingly on LinkedIn.

As in, "I'm really trying to reduce the overwhelm I feel every time I come across a typo."

Well, thanks to 'nounification', it looks as if it's here to stay.

Are you an 'overwhelm as noun' convert... or do you prefer to use 'overload' as a noun instead, like us?

Banloca means ‘body’ or 'muscles'. It literally translates as 'bone locker' or 'bone enclosure'!

Did you guess correctly?

Today in Australia, it's the 26 January – Australia Day.

This day holds different significance for each Australian, but for First Nations People, it's not a day for festivity – it’s a day of sorrow.

Today is the day in 1788 when the 11 tall ships of the First Fleet landed at Warrane (Sydney Cove) and Captain Arthur Phillip raised the Union Flag, claiming the land for King George III and the British Empire. This was despite the country having been inhabited by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for tens of thousands of years beforehand. On this historical day, they gathered along the shore, kindled fires and set off in canoes, staring at the docked ships with a mix of bewilderment, apprehension and resentment.

Australia was not 'terra nullius' or 'land belonging to no one' as characterised during Captain James Cook's expedition of 1770–1771, so the British settlement was founded on a colossal untruth. They seized land that wasn't theirs. Shockingly, Australia is the only major Commonwealth nation lacking a treaty with its First Nations peoples, unlike Canada and New Zealand, and the US – which has more than 370.

At Catch the Sun, we express our solidarity with First Nations peoples, believing that Australia Day should be changed to a day where ALL Australians can celebrate. Today, we won't be celebrating our country's past.

Wherever you find yourself this 26 January, why not delve into Australia's true history? It's a proactive way to gain more insight into the initiative, which is unequivocally gaining momentum each year.
