   ALT.USAGE.ENGLISH      
        is a newsgroup where we discuss the English language                     
              (and also occasionally other languages) We discuss how   
             particular words, phrases, and syntactic forms are used;   
             how they originated; and where in the English-speaking world   
             they're prevalent (All this is called "description".) We   
             also discuss how we think they should be used ("prescription")
