This week's #WeeklyTshirt is in honor of #lexicographers and #linguists who introduced me to "Descriptive not Prescriptive." Meaning #linguistics is not an impartial referee of correctness, but a description of language by real people at a certain time. https://danielsolis.threadless.com/designs/descriptive-not-prescriptive

Folks; "agentic" (for #agents in #AI), is not a real word in English. Available adjectives are "agentive" or "agential". Even worse is "agenticness" - eugh! I know #languageisalivingthing etc. etc., but seriously. Is it too late to stop this? #lexicographers please help!

I'm angry to find out that IXL Learning has bought Dictionary.com and that in doing so, it laid off the entire #lexicography team! How absolutely horrid and nonsensical.
