New merch! Socks, water bottles, cards, and new BIG GRAMMAR t-shirts (Patreon)

We are delighted to announce that by popular demand, you can now get lingthustiastic socks! 

That's right, our three prints (International Phonetic Alphabet, tree diagrams, and esoteric symbols) can now adorn your ankles in lingthusiastic style! (Note that the IPA design will have thicker lines on the final socks, the photo above is the demo versions we ordered to see if we needed to make any adjustments! We're happy to report that the socks are smooth and comfortable though, and you can't feel the texture of the printing at all. They're still novelty socks, but they feel thicker and higher quality than most novelty socks that we've encountered.) 

You can also still get our three prints (IPA, trees, symbols) in various colours on scarves, notebooks, mugs and ties. 

Plus, we have a new word art design: LINGUISTIC "CORRECTNESS" IS JUST A LIE FROM BIG GRAMMAR TO SELL MORE GRAMMARS, which is available on shirts, totes, mugs, and zippered pouches, like our NOT JUDGING YOUR GRAMMAR, JUST ANALYSING IT and HECK YEAH LANGUAGE CHANGE descriptivist word art designs. 

We also have a few new items with IPA-themed puns, so you can have glottals on your bottles or liquids around your liquids! (The liquids design is available on both mugs and water bottles, the glottals design just on water bottles, for reasons of euphony.) 

And finally, you can now get greeting cards with "thanks" or "congrats" on them in the International Phonetic Alphabet, to help you thank or congratulate a linguist in your life. (If you disagree with our transcription or want to say something different, you can also get these colourful, confetti-like designs with a blank centre to write your own message.) 

All of the Lingthusiasm merch makes a great gift for the linguist or linguistics fan in your life, and as a patron you get to find out about new merch before anyone else! Check out the merch page at lingthusiasm.com/merch for the previous rounds of Lingthusiasm merch (it'll be updated with this new merch in a bit, once this announcement is public). 

As ever, we love seeing photos of any Lingthusiasm merch in your lives! Tag us in them @lingthusiasm on social media (or private message us photos of your babies in Lingthusiasm onesies if you're not keen on posting baby photos publically, we still love to see them!) 

Stay Lingthusiastic!
