I always liked the word 'shan't' - it reminds me of Pride and Prejudice or something, lol. Besides that I think it's quite a useful word - can't or won't don't have the same meaning really. I think it's related to the decline in the use of 'shall' (perhaps due to changing societal attitudes even?).
Anyway, anyone know how/why it went away and do you think it'll ever be back in 'vogue' like it was in the Victoria era?
