Philology

Philology is the science of language. Keen as I am on English, that doesn't make me a philologist, as I don't do anything scientifically. However an alternative definition is the love of learning and literature, so I probably am a philogian, or at least partly philological. How about you?

Btw, there's still time to enter the mini competition to win an ebook. Just leave a comment which includes one of the M words here, before midnight tonight.

Hi Patsy - it's an interesting word ... and I do love language - I suspect I should probably have had a career around philology in some way or other ... still - lots happens in blogging - cheers Hilary
