I find the English language a fascinating subject. (The easiest way to find out how much you don't know about it is to start teaching it!) There is a preliferation of sites about English and heaps of Ezines, all of which are fairly easy to find to the savvy searcher.

However, one that takes my fancy is the Majority English Dibul [bentarz.se], Majority English being defined as "the English of non-native speakers". I find it a very informative, funny, and stimulating ezine which I think would be very useful to Webmasters trying to fathom the intracacies of this mixed up language.

From the latest Dibul:-
"3. E-STUFF
<snip>
Can you explain the difference between e-trade, e-business and e-commerce?
___

No. And I doubt if the company doing the e-whatever can either."

"4. NEW WORDS
<snip>
HANDHELD - A computer, PDA, telephone, camera, etc all in one but small
enough to hold in your hand. These devises are not fully developed yet and
it will be interesting to see if "handheld" becomes the term of choice."

Highly recommended by yours truly with the obligatory disclaimer of "no affiliation".
