Linguists (NOT Grammarians)
We are linguists. Please do not confuse us with grammarians. We are not here to nitpick your language and order you about, but we may analyze it in more detail than you ever cared about.
Join and discuss linguistic study, issues, theory, or just your (linguistics) homework. Linguists of every variety and education level welcome, though reading the interests may clue you in to the preferences of your friendly maintainers.
Finally, please play nice. No flaming. Thank you. :)
