Language Varieties Network: www2.hawaii.edu/~gavinm/home.htm
The purposes of this network are: to provide a forum for dialogue about
variant-language issues in education, to provide a network of information about
pidgins, creoles, and other stigmatized varieties.

Language[s] change[s]: vowels shift, phonologies crash-&-burn, grammars
leak, morpho-syntactics implode, lexico-semantics mutate, lexicons explode,
orthographies reform, typographies blip-&-beep, slang flashes, stylistics
warp... linguistic (R)evolutions mark each-&-every quantum leap...

You are the songfast
