After 20 years writing about the peculiarities and evolution of the English language, I stopped suddenly and finally early in 2017. Truth be told, after 930 issues of my weekly newsletter I was becoming written out. Every week that passed made writing more of a chore and less of a pleasure.
However, all is not lost. There are nearly 3,000 articles here on aspects of the growth and change of the English language, which will remain online for as long as possible. They should give you as many hours of browsing as you wish. Consult the index. There are many more articles on another site, my dictionary of affixes, in which I define and describe the many prefixes and suffixes in English.
It has been a pleasure to research and write on language and an honour through that writing to be able to inform and entertain many thousands of people. This site remains a reminder of my years of intense and intrigued interest in English.
