The School of Wintz

In an effort to provide a useful resource for myself, and anyone else who may stumble upon this blog, I’ve decided to begin writing several 101 series. Naturally, they will be focused around areas I consider to be useful for those who wish to become successful evolutionary linguists (something I’m also trying to work on, so my claims may be completely bogus). I’ll update this page often, so keep coming back, or simply add it to your RSS, and you should find a new article. I’m not going to set an estimated frequency of when I’ll update, as I find these tend to be wildly speculative, and are no more useful than someone giving you stock tips.
