1) Linguistics is often mistakenly understood to be a knowledge of several languages. So what is it? 2) Know "correct" English, but understand that language evolves so that even native speakers make "mistakes" or use "bad" grammar. Understand prescriptive vs. descriptive grammar and use the difference to your advantage.
