BW12: Literary Linguistics

 


Happy Sunday!  Literary Linguistics - the interface between literature and linguistics and the study and analysis of language.  Since one of our 52 Books Bingo categories is linguistics, I figured it would be fun, and ended up following so many rabbit holes on the internet, I forgot what I was there for.  Digging myself out of the linguistic hole before I forget to write this post.  LOL! 

There are many science fiction and speculative fiction authors who enjoy creating new languages and cultures for their stories, whether from our past or the future, much to our benefit, which is what I'll probably be reading. So join me inn reading about the etymology of language or delve into fictional world where linguistics plays a huge role.
