Recognising the ways in which our choice of vocabulary and imagery can reflect our own attitude towards later life is key to addressing ageism, and this paper explores some of the 370 words in the UK English dictionary which contain the word ‘age’.

Finally, the idea of reframing ageing, which has emerged within the English-speaking world, is outlined and evaluated.
