List of linguists

A linguist in the academic sense is a person who studies natural language (an academic discipline known as linguistics). Ambiguously, the word is sometimes also used to refer to a polyglot (one who knows several languages), or a grammarian (a scholar of grammar), but these two uses of the word are distinct (and one does not have to be a polyglot in order to be an academic linguist).[1] The following is a list of notable linguists in the academic sense.

gollark: Ethereum charges you for on-blockchain computing power in some way, but since the NFTs mean basically nothing and are just pointers to external things, they can totally have turing machines if they want to.
gollark: The issue with that is that mining has to be hard to *do* but easy to *verify*.
gollark: I suppose there's some ambiguity on where it would actually revoke from.
gollark: I don't *think* so, you would just need to depth-first-search the transactions.
gollark: Yes, that.

Notes
  1. The word linguistician has been coined to refer to one who studies linguistics, in order to avoid this ambiguity, although this word is vanishingly rare and has no currency in the field .
