Amirali Taqishah Linguist · Software Developer
I started Joyful Speaking to bring linguistics and literature together in a way learners actually enjoy. This magazine isn't only educational, it's meant to be entertaining too. I believe linguistics is a powerful science that everyone can benefit from, and what we publish here is designed to share fascinating language insights while helping people communicate with more ease and confidence.
