The Recursiveness of Language - Another Linkfest

Here is another round of links to linkfests from some of my favorite blogs.

Fritinancy - Linkfests
Sentence First - Link Love
Literal-Minded - Linkfests
Macmillan Dictionary Blog - Language and Words in the News
TYWKIWDBI - Linkdump

In linguistics, recursion is the unlimited extension of language. It is the ability to embed phrases within phrases and sentences within sentences resulting in the potential of a never-ending sentence.

I sure hope that someone will link to my links to these linkfests and that another person will link to that link and another person will link to the link that links to my links to these linkfests and so on and so on and so on...
