What is the Global Language Monitor?
A. The Global Language Monitor documents, analyzes, and tracks the latest trends in word usage and word choices and their impact on the various aspects of culture, with a particular emphasis upon Global English. GLM, an internet media analytics company, was founded six years ago in Silicon Valley. It is a direct descendent of yourDictionary.com, the premier multi-language dictionary site with some 230 languages. YDC had very deep academic roots with some two dozen of the world’s top linguists on its Academic Council of Experts. The Global Language Monitor is one of the first companies to exclusively focus on English as the first, true global language, and its impact on various aspects of culture, such as politics, the arts, entertainment, science, technology, and the like. The leading global media have come to rely upon GLM’s analysis and analytical techniques. The Global Language Monitor is based in Austin, Texas. Paul JJ Payack is the founding president of both companies.
