Watch Your Language is a discussion of language, linguistics, and, particularly, the continuing development of American English. Not only are these changes described, but positions are taken on issues such as gender-specific language, taboo words, verbal abuse and "Proper" English. Things which might just make your English teacher or professor angry.

This is the first not-quite-ready-for-primetime episode. I discuss some basics of language and my background in language and linguistics. The featured song is Losing the Language by Peanut Butter and June. The theme song, with permission from the artist, is Common Flaws by Chad Trent. Both songs are available here through Garage Band.
