Author Amanda Montell introduces the subject of sociolinguistics, where the studies of language and human sociology intersect.
ADVERTISEMENT In Wordslut, journalist and linguist Amanda Montell introduces the subject of sociolinguistics—where the studies of language and human sociology intersect—and invites readers to look at various ways of communicating in the English language through a feminist lens. With humor and passion for the subject, and supplemented by fascinating asides, Montell illuminates the significance of dozens of words and linguistic habits.
While some of Montell’s linguistic dreams seem a bit too far-fetched to ever gain traction , overall, her hopes of people becoming more conscious of their word choices in an effort to move toward a more gender-equal future are both realistic and laudable.
