For those that don't know this man, then shame on you! He is a verbivore, aka a linguist that loves to play with the language. I've just found his website. It has a lot of his columns of words, word puzzles and games, and talks about grammar. The website is at: http://www.verbivore.com/
He really is an very interesting personality for words, and I'm sure you'll like the website very much. Use it to your full advantage. |

Oooh! Richard Lederer!
A warning to all ye who don't use proper grammar: read Anguished English!  |

Ahem, to be honest, I have no idea who this person is. Anyway, I'm checking out the website. From what you say it seems to be very interesting. And, yay! Another word to add to my already long vocabulary list.
...
Ooh, the site is very amusing. Most of the puns there were...interesting, for lack of a better word. *sigh* I just cannot find any sites these days to keep me entertained for hours on end, like I'm sure this will. This is definitely going on my bookmarks! |
