Seeing as my brain just wondered for several seconds what language has the word pronounced ‘stom-ak-akay’, hard no.

If you happen to have submitted to JRMA, then I will be copyediting, and I certainly won’t be decisioning your word choices.

When do we get pet passports back for the rest of the EU?

Unfortunately, many academic presses (even big-name ones) are just as bad. If they’re not using AI, they are often using badly paid and / or non-native speakers who don’t know how to properly edit.

Aargh! 😖

Woohoo!!!!! Sanity has prevailed. Thanks so much for letting me know 😊 Max will get to go on holiday this year (can’t you tell he’s excited?)

Thank you for this, Tanya. I am married to an immigrant and completely agree with you. Would you mind if I copied your letter to my Labour MP (alongside my own thoughts)?
