<i>Nature</i>. It's a glimpse of the emic perspectives on language by those working in STEM. Suresh Canagarajah and colleagues have written some great pieces on this recently:<o:p></o:p></p>

language ideologies of our own field (applied linguistics or ESP/EMI specifically) in ways that respect the agency and autonomy of STEM scholars.<o:p></o:p></p>

English is the language of science — but precision is tough as a non-native speaker<br>
<br>
English is the international language of science, for better or for worse, but most of the world’s scientists speak it as a second language. We shoulder an extra career challenge: not only must we gain command of our science, but we must also be able to write
to professional standards in a foreign language to communicate that science.<br>
