Grammar Wars: The English We Fight About, and Can We Find Punctuation Peace? with Ellen Jovin

Grammar Wars: The English We Fight About, and Can We Find Punctuation Peace? with Ellen Jovin

Thurs, Sept 19 2:45-4pm

Ellen, founder of the nationally acclaimed Grammar Table, will lead a rollicking online session through some of the thornier grammar issues of our time. What topics get people’s grammar goat? How can we reconcile our declension differences? Will we ever come to a comma consensus? Ellen recently took her traveling pop-up grammar advice stand to the streets of all 50 US states, so she has seen it all, grammatically speaking. During our session she will show a trailer from a new documentary, Rebel with a Clause, that her filmmaker husband, Brandt Johnson, made of their unprecedented grammar road trip. Ellen’s book about the Grammar Table, also called Rebel with a Clause, was a national bestseller in 2022.
