Welcome to Speculative Grammarian.

Speculative Grammarian is the premier scholarly journal featuring research in the neglected field of satirical linguistics.

Speculative Grammarian

Volume CLIX, Number 4
September 2010

The editors of Speculative Grammarian are elated to state to all and sundry that another issue of our exquisite journal is now available. This issue is comprised of a collection of the latest leading-edge articles, including: reassurance about the lack of impending linguistic big rip; more interesting developments in Pinnacle Sherpa; revelations concerning a Chinese dictionary code; and further things you didn’t know you didn’t know—along with the usual high-quality collection of letters from our readers, poetry, cartoons, puzzles, and more...

Next time (October 2010), we will have another all-new Special Morphome Issue of Speculative Grammarian.

Read the current issue.
Read back issues.

We have recently completed our transition from the real world to online: we have finally finished digitizing the tattered remains of our once glorious Archive, re-publishing each issue on the internet.
Our new mission is two-fold:

First, we will continue to publish the best works of satirical linguistics available anywhere—in various formats, including online publishing, audio podcasts, and micro-blogging. We are, of course, looking for submissions for upcoming issues of SpecGram.

Second, we seek to transform other satirical linguistics resources from their current dead-tree-format to a more readily disseminated bit-based format. Our most recent projects have been the conversion of the anthologies Lingua Pranca and Son of Lingua Pranca.

I hope you enjoy your visit with us. We hope you’ll come back again soon. There are always several improvements in the works, and we always appreciate your suggestions and ideas.
