Word Crimes In the song, Yankovic spoofs those who use numbers in place of letters, which he criticizes as only acceptable if they are children, or Prince (referring to successful Prince songs with numbers in their title, such as "I Would Die 4 U"). He also lampoons people who use the word "literally" to describe non-literal situations. The song highlights other common prescriptions: Yankovic mentions the usage of "less" versus "fewer", and the use of "to whom" as opposed to "to who". Spelling is also brought up, as he states that there is no "x" in the word "espresso" (n.b. expresso). Regarding
