Join ARP and author Jila Ghomeshi for the Toronto launch of Grammar Matters at Type Books.
Within linguistics the term “prescriptivism” is used to refer to the judgements that people make about language based on the idea that some forms and uses of language are correct and others incorrect. In Grammar Matters, author Jila Ghomeshi argues that prescriptivism is unfounded at its very core, and explores why it is, nevertheless, such a popular position.
