A Decade of All Things Linguistic
When I started All Things Linguistic ten years ago, it felt a way of finally joining the linguistics blogosphere conversation that Iād been reading for the previous ten years or so. I didnāt expect that it would lead to me meeting and sometimes even collaborating with so many interesting people along the way, not to mention developing a whole career out of lingcomm.Ā
Iām now better known for many of these non-blog projects, especially Because Internet and Lingthusiasm, but for me, this blog is always where it began. So, hereās a few highlights from the past decade:
I did a lot of these more in-depth linguistics-y series and posts in the early years of the blog, before I started writing for other places as well. To browse a longer list of them, see my favourites page.
I relistened to the entire BBC radio comedy series Cabin Pressure and found amusing linguistics content in every single episode
