Beskrivelse af Fixing English
Anne Curzan demonstrates the important role prescriptivism plays in the history of the English language. Starting with a pioneering new definition of prescriptivism as a linguistic phenomenon, she highlights the significant role played by Microsoft's grammar checker, debates about 'real words', non-sexist language reform, and efforts to reappropriate stigmatized terms.
