400,000 Visits for Ordinary Working Grammarian

As of today, March 6, 2026, my blog Ordinary Working Grammarian has reached a total of 400,000 visits. The blog began on March 14, 2017, and it reached the 200,000 mark on October 19, 2024 (over seven years). The second 200,000 took about a year and a half. Currently the blog is visited by around 10,000 people per month. I feel that is a very large number for a blog whose content concerns natural language syntax and linguistic fieldwork.

In celebration of this milestone, I am posting a list of my most popular blog posts over the last year (in order of popularity). I have a broad readership throughout the world, so if you want to post as a guest, please let me know! I welcome different points of view, even those very different from my own, as long as the subject matter is syntax or fieldwork.
