> Lingua, the prominent linguistics journal, where the entire editorial board resigned and started the Open Access journal Glossa

In case any readers aren't aware, "lingua" is Latin for 'tongue'/'language', while "glossa" (γλῶσσα) is Greek for 'tongue'/'language'. (We also have English words that come from the Attic dialect form "glotta" (γλῶττα); for Ancient Greek dialectal variation between σ and τ, see https://lucianofsamosata.info/TrialInTheCourtOfVowels.html.)
