hello language nerds :D this list is for any sci-fi or fantasy that involves language! i wanna keep the criteria for this is pretty loose, so examples that might fit could include (but aren’t limited to):
-an author creating a new language for their story (think elvish in tolkien’s middle-earth or the belter creole from the expanse)
-an author using the study of linguistics in their story (like rf kuang’s babel)
language or linguistics just needs to play an important role in the story!
