I'm a college student inbetween my freshmen and sophmore year and I'm thinking about majoring in Linguistics... But unlike you guys, I don't know anything yet, so I can't really talk about it. Actually, I've taken a single basic "Intro to Linguistics" class, and though I really enjoyed it and I've always been into languages and language learning, the fact that I have no real in-depth understanding right now and that I don't have a good sense of what sub-fields I like better than others kind of makes me worry that I might be moving in the wrong direction. Yet there's nothing else that really strikes my fancy in terms of majors than linguistics. Oh well. College!
