American Dialect Society experts list

[Grant Barrett]

As we approach the words-of-the-year season, we once more extend the
opportunity for members of the American Dialect Society to be included on
the society's "experts" page.

http://www.americandialect.org/experts

This page is used by journalists who need someone to comment on, or be
interviewed about, language-related matters. Theoretically, it increases the
quality of language-related reporting. It may also improve your CV (or at
least make your institution's PR department fond of you) and it can
sometimes be great fun.

If you'd like to be on the page, please send your name, your affiliations,
your areas of expertise, a short list of works published, and at least one
way to contact you (phone, email, web site, etc.). Including a phone number
increases your chances of being called. You would be contacted a few times a
month at most.

If you are already on the list, please review your entry to make sure it is
up to date.
