Grammar Girl Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing

Rob Drummond on languaging and our fluid speaking identities


Listen Later

In this bonus conversation with Rob Drummond from back in June, he and I get into the fascinating concept of "languaging" — the idea that speaking is an active process we use to constantly shape and project our identities. Rob explains how our "speaking identities" are incredibly fluid, changing based on context, audience, and even the language we're using.
