• Some Anglophones find a bone to pick with the usual suspect in linguistic debates: France. From the Education Guardian. (Just kidding! Everyone likes to argue with France, right?)
• And there’s more, thanks to TEFLtastic for the link.
• Not quite ESL, but perhaps a job to consider post-TEFL for those who pick up a good deal of their host country’s local language.
• A new plan in Australia could lead to additional language aid for refugees.
• A full house is the norm in Washington state ESL classes.
• Revel in some “lost words” in English, including a list of “ q not followed by u” words and a ranking of swear words by severity.
