    This year, Babel: The Language Magazine <https://babelzine.co.uk/> will
    be running the tenth edition of our Young Writers' Competition, which encourages young linguists who are starting out on their study of language.

    The competition is open to anyone studying a linguistics-related subject
    at the 16–18-year-old or undergraduate level. The winner(s) will have
    their article published in Babel's 50th issue (Spring 2025) and receive
    a year's subscription to the magazine.

    Keep an eye on @Babelzine on X or @babel_zine on Instagram for
    inspiration from previous winners on topics ranging from sign language
    to spoonerisms, and from language birth to language death.

    Competition rules are as follows:

    Topic: An original discussion of any linguistic topic, written in an
    accessible and interesting style
