SpecGram Newsletter July 2025: All-New CXCIV.4 Now Online

[Trey Jones]

Greetings Linguists!

I’m pleased to announce that Volume CXCIV, Number 4 of Speculative Grammarian, originally published in July of 2025, is now available:

https://specgram.com/CXCIV.4/

This Antepenultimate Issue offers many excellent articles, including the slick bars of a fresh track about an up-and-coming rapper’s evening in the club, the revival of previously lost media plumbing the orthographic depths, an extended preview from Panini Press of a spiritual successor to Metaphors We Live By that inverts many of the dimensions of L&J’s foundational metaphorical lens, and a brave recognition that there is such a thing as a stupid question and a practical tool to deal with the unwanted arrival of such—along with the usual collection of insightful advice, breaking news, limericks, minute.DU mystery.PL stories, book announcements, linguistickish puzzles, advertisements, and more...

As always, comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome!

Enjoy!
—Trey
