When I first got into teaching English for academic purposes, I never thought I would be writing comments like this on a student paper:

The difference between race and ethnicity is controversial in politics and sociology but straightforward in fantasy: humans, dwarves, orcs etc, are races; Southrons, Calormenes and Dothraki are ethnic groups.

Man, I love my job!
