If you’ve seen a lot of linguistics and etymology content on YouTube, TikTok, or Facebook, you’re probably already familiar with Adam Aleksic aka #EtymologyNerd and probably have also heard about his new book Algospeak.
Taylor Jones, aka languagejones, a linguist with a PhD from UPenn and whose YouTube channel I am subscribed to, has read Algospeak and oh boy does he hate it!
