literateur

One who is almost obnoxiously acquainted with literature, and frequently reminds others of this fact.

A 'literateur' would immediately recognize the Dickensian reference if one wrote the word "humble" as "'umble", and would make damn sure you knew he/she knew you knew.

Literate

A rare breed of person who types correctly, using corrent grammer & punctuation where necessary. They are often for elitists because of their desire to mingle with other literates.

They detest things such as chatspeak, which is often called "shorthand" by illiterates. Some literates can deal with said chatspeak, while others cannot.

This is a Literates Only room. We came here to have actual discussions without the chatspeak.
