Please help support The Word Detective!
Note: The Word Detective suspended regular monthly publication on the web and via email in 2015 due to Evan’s illness. Evan passed away in 2017 (read his obituary here), but as he wished, The Word Detective site will continue on. So while we’re not accepting subscriptions, please read on for why we need your support more than ever.
————————————————-
For more than 20 years (!), The Word Detective has been a free online resource for writers, etymology buffs, language fans and literally millions of curious visitors. Now we’re facing a serious crisis and we need your help, to both keep TWD online and to keep the feline horde in mass quantities of basic food–and a staggering 240 lb. of kitty litter a month–not to mention (especially to the cats) visits to the vet.
Unfortunately, The Word Detective’s small ad revenue doesn’t even cover the site’s monthly hosting fees, let alone cat food and utility bills.
So if you enjoy browsing the more than 1,500 columns on this site, or you have word and phrase questions you’d like answered, please contribute to The Word Detective if you can. Even just $5 makes a real difference.
(Note: Any old PayPal buttons or links you click on elsewhere on the site will result in a refund of your contribution, since they link to the old Paypal account. Please follow the instructions below instead. And thank you!)
