Word Ways: The Journal of Recreational Linguistics
Home Page
For more than thirty years, Word
Ways has explored the many facets of logology (an old word
resurrected by the late Dmitri Borgmann to describe
recreational linguistics). Dmitri wrote the classic book on
this topic -- Language on Vacation (Scribner's,
1965), now out of print -- and was the first Word Ways editor
in 1968. Word Ways is currently edited by Ross Eckler, author
of the recent book Making the Alphabet Dance (St.
Martin's, 1996), a survey of the field and the many new
discoveries made in the last thirty-five years.
Word Ways is published in an 80-page format four times a
year (February, May, August, November). To contact us, write
