So I like linguistics, right. Except. When you look at books in the linguistics section, it's all about like grammar and proper language and shit. I know that stuff. I want books about, like, social linguistics. Is that a thing? The way people talk in different situations, the usage of particular words and phrases, how memes are spread, stuff like that. We did some interesting things about it in school and I want books but atm I'm reduced to scanning through pages and pages of books about correct and proper language (whether English, Croatian, Cornish, Swahili...) and hoping something will have a title that grabs attention.
