This Element presents an investigation into the use of the gender inclusive strategy schwa in a corpus of tweets. The corpus is read through a triangulation of two frameworks: Corpus-Assisted Discourse Studies and Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis. The new linguistic strategy is a viable and powerful replacement for generic sexist language.
