Prescriptivism Must Die!
Descriptivism isn’t “anything goes” | Motivated Grammar
https://motivatedgrammar.wordpress.com/2011/11/07/descriptivism-isnt-anything-goes
Descriptivism isn’t “anything goes”. November 7, 2011 in English. Questions to the reader. One of the most common claims levelled against descriptivists, and against linguists of every stripe, is that our linguistic philosophy amounts to “anything goes”. Whenever anyone says something, the thought is, we will take it as a valid sentence in their language. But undeniably ungrammatical utterances like These is a big problem. Do I think they’re ungrammatical? In two of his posts. But it’s important en...
Of course you don’t see patterns in what you don’t understand | Motivated Grammar
https://motivatedgrammar.wordpress.com/2013/01/07/of-course-you-dont-see-patterns-in-what-you-dont-understand
Of course you don’t see patterns in what you don’t understand. January 7, 2013 in bad arguments. I’ve been looking through some unfinished drafts of posts from last year, trying to toss some of them together into something meaningful, and I found one that was talking about the stupid Gizmodo “Hashtags are ruining English” piece. From last January. (Given hashtag. 8220;The point is that texting and hashtags are at the root of the increasing illiteracy. Why worry about what an adjective is? Would be, I don...
The Fortnight Before: 01/18/13 | Motivated Grammar
https://motivatedgrammar.wordpress.com/2013/01/18/the-fortnight-before-011813
The Fortnight Before: 01/18/13. January 18, 2013 in et cetera. I’ve been meaning to set up some sort of occasional round-up of interesting pieces on the rest of the Internet, and with the new year, there’s no better time to start. I’ll be posting these (hopefully consistently) every other Friday, starting today. This edition is going to go a bit outside the past 14 days; I hope this doesn’t sour you to it. A couple links with commentary:. Jonathon Owen’s post on relative pronouns. That (journalistic) edi...
Singular “they” and the many reasons why it’s correct | Motivated Grammar
https://motivatedgrammar.wordpress.com/2009/09/10/singular-they-and-the-many-reasons-why-its-correct
Singular “they” and the many reasons why it’s correct. September 10, 2009 in agreement. Suppose you were reading and came to the following line:. 8220;She kept her head and kicked her shoes off, as everybody ought to do who falls into deep water in their clothes.”. Would you …. A) continue reading, because that’s a perfectly acceptable sentence, or. B) throw a tantrum and insist that the author is an imbecile speeding the wholesale destruction of the English language? Geoffrey Chaucer is widely credited ...
All of what sudden? | Motivated Grammar
https://motivatedgrammar.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/all-of-what-sudden
All of what sudden? July 20, 2011 in English. All of a sudden. All of the sudden. Today I get to pretend to be a big-time radio DJ, a regular Casey Kasem or Delilah*, by sending out this post by request to Mike Pope. One of this blog’s earliest followers. (If you’ve got a similar simmering question, drop a line at motivatedgrammar at gmail dot com. And I’ll try to look into it.) He suggested I look into the debate between all of a. And all of the. And it turned out to be a pretty interesting topic. On Go...

How to Write Descriptions | Linguistics In The Classroom
http://www.linguisticsintheclassroom.com/2013/10/30/how-to-write-descriptions
Linguistics In The Classroom. Short explanations and exercises to teach how language is constructed and meaning is made. How to Write Descriptions. The students sat in a circle. I asked them to take a few minutes to look at each of their classmates (there are 19 students in each class) and to take note of each face and begin to construct descriptions. They blushed and giggled, but seemed to enjoy it and did look at each other carefully, alternating between staring and scanning. 8212;——–. Required fields ...
GlobalWatchWatch: American Family
http://globalwatchwatch.blogspot.com/2010/08/american-family.html
Saturday, August 7, 2010. This section, while not horribly written, disturbs me. The person who typed in Global Watch. Matches two of the characters, Max and Rachel, in a romance. It's a subplot of the story how they realize their true feelings for each other. That's all well and sickly sweet and ho-hum predictable, but this section has the domestic abuse hotline counselor in me screaming out. I hope in Book 2 of the exciting series Global Watch. Posted by Global Watcher. August 7, 2010 at 8:46 PM. The C...

It's not my best work, but consider the source material I had to work with. Posted by Global Watcher. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Because I am lazy. The person who typed in Global Watch. Uses the verb "unfold" 13 times in the course of the story. Posted by Global Watcher. Sunday, February 21, 2010. I also hate Kyp. Here's another one of Global Watch. Could have avoided the c...
GlobalWatchWatch: June 2010
http://globalwatchwatch.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 27, 2010. Sounds like someone we know. Over the past couple of weeks, followers of this blog have sent me stories and comments and articles about the decline in writing standards. After all the stories I've been sent, the usual refrain is, "Sound like someone you know? Well, to reach out to my readership, I'll share this New York Times. That I think describes the root of the problem. In the comments, one person writes. This blog has been accused of picking on Global Watch. Is charging people...
GlobalWatchWatch: Still not there.
http://globalwatchwatch.blogspot.com/2010/04/seeing-as-how-person-who-typed-in.html
Sunday, April 11, 2010. Seeing as how the person who typed in Global Watch hasn't taken me up on my offer. To edit the final, latest, Re-Edited One Year Anniversary Edition of Global Watch. I'm using the one at the Smashwords webpage. And, quelle surprise! It still has errors in it. Then/than" confusion still reigns (or, as the person who typed in Global Watch. Might write, "reins". Oblivious pitfall" continues to be awesome. To repeat: This is what the person who typed in Global Watch. RED PEN, INC.
GlobalWatchWatch: Verbs
http://globalwatchwatch.blogspot.com/2010/08/verbs.html
Sunday, August 1, 2010. Today, I'd like to talk about verbs. The person who typed in Global Watch. Has a hard time using the right tense, and the right verb. For instance, read this action-packed, fast paced section. I'm confused by how the person who typed in Global Watch. Describes Kyp's fighting style. First, he "launches" his attacker across the room, and then stands up. Then, after he says, "Are you so sure about that? He is sitting again. The person who typed in Global Watch. Wants us to believe th...

Motivated Grammar | Prescriptivism Must Die!
The seductive fear that you’re using words wrong. December 5, 2013 in bad arguments. You wonder, could it be I’m using it wrong? That niggling uncertainty kicks in, the same niggling uncertainty that’s pushed you to educate yourself all these years. It creeps further, darkening your mind. Have I been using words wrong? Your breath quickens — how many others have thought heard me say them before this stranger came up and told me I was wrong? Have I used one of them lately? Have I been judged? Which she de...
