Oh Hey There

There’s a word for what I want to study

nostrich:

Sociolinguistics.

This also happens to be the word for what I’m looking forward to studying later this year as part of my Linguistics BA!

Sociolinguistics is a lot of fun. My favorite part of my course was a particular study about the language practices employed by “Nerd Girls” to assert group identity and deny association with prevailing “Jock” practices.
