Greetings Linguists!
I’m pleased to announce that Volume CXCIII, Number 1 of Speculative Grammarian, originally published in June of 2023, is now available.
This issue offers many excellent articles, including a fragment of a lost work of Dante, condemning word coiners to Malebolge, where they belong; a reprint of a once-groundbreaking 2015 proposal for a once-novel grammatical category—trapezity—and a cutting-edge reply that one must assume is brilliant because it is in French; and—Ermahgerd!—an exciting new twist on a game of deducing a word’ll knock your socks off!—plus the usual collection of letters from our readers, insightful advice, breaking news, limericks and other poetry, serendipitous fieldwork, other linguistickish puzzles, and more...
As always, comments, questions, suggestions, and submissions are welcome!
Enjoy!
—Trey
