English Language and Linguistics...?

About the only thing a degree in English is good for is teaching.  If you enjoy teaching, and like English and Literature, this is a good fit for you.\n\nYou might consider journalism or communications along with an English minor, or make it a double major to open more fields to you.  \n\nIf you enjoy languages in general, you might pursue a course in foreign languages.  The FBI/CIA/NSA pay big bucks for certain languages now, such as Arabic, Russian, and Chinese as well as many others.  You could also work as an interpreter, book translator, and many other jobs .... and of course, you can always teach with this type of degree.\n\nYou may also consider taking a lot of creative writing courses with your English degree and become a novelist, short story writer, and/or poet.\n\nThere are many opportunities for someone in the field of language.  What I tell my daughters is to figure out what they really love to do and choose that.  Money is important, but if you are going to work 40+ hrs a week for the rest of your life, you should be doing something you love.\n\nGood Luck!\n\nSue

The British Council says "English is the main language of books, newspapers, airports and air-traffic control, international business and academic conferences, science, technology, diplomacy, sport, international competitions, pop music and advertising.\n\n     Over two-thirds of the world's scientists read in English. Three quarters of the world's mail is written in English. Eighty per cent of the world's electronically stored information is in English. Of the estimated forty million users of the Internet, some eighty per cent communicate in English, but this is expected to decrease to forty per cent as speakers of other languages get online."\n\nWhat our students say about English \n\n     "English is an easy language. There are no accents, the tenses of verbs are simplified and the adjectives are invariable", says Gustavo O. after three years studying it at school. Anaelle S. agrees with him but she finds the many different ways words are pronounced and the spelling difficult to cope with. Nicolas de F. finds it interesting and cool because through it he can understand many films and songs. "You need English to travel around the world - it's a language almost everybody understands - so it's easier to communicate with people from different cultures", says Daniela K. . According to Aldebaran D., "you must speak English if you want a good job especially if you want to work with computers".

That is correct English, do not try to change it, just remember it, English is a majority rule language, and you are in a definite minority, so, tough luck, if you want to change English grammar rules keep using it and if it gets accepted, well done, till then, tough

As mentioned above linguistics is the science of phonetics, syntax, etc. In addition, sociolinguistics focuses on society and language, gender and language, professions and language, etc. Computational linguistics focuses on the study of language from a computational perspective. It is an interdisciplinary field which draws on linguistic theory (phonology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics) and computer science (artificial intelligence, theory of computation, programming methods, etc.) \n\nThere are many jobs for compuational linguistics in the IT industry if this is something you are interested in. You could also get a doctorate degree and become a college professor. In addition to this you can teach languages, communication arts, work as a speech pathologist, become a writer, journalist, publicist, copy writer, professional translator, and more... \n\nGeorgetown University offers an excellent linguistics program including a 5 year BA/MA degree and PhD program.

English English is the one I prefer.  It is by all means the proper way of speaking it since the language first developed in Britain.  Oh yeah, I love the accents as well.

First, let me suggest a great book called "Eats, Shoots, Leaves" by Lynn Truss. I think you would appreciate it.\n\nSecond, let me embarrass myself by tackling your sentence.\n\n(H)ey, what(')s or what is up with my gramm(a)r?\n\nThose were the obvious errors. Of course, I reserve the right to find more, but that is it for now.
