Externs
0 Hello, 02 br
02 br
00 I work on a project that involves and partly relies on some “external collaborators”. Now, I have never even seen most of these people—we communicate only through the Internet. They are typically students and they work on the project irregularly at home or elsewhere in their spare time. 02 br
02 br
00 Would calling them “external collaborators” be considered appropriate in the English-speaking world? 02 br
02 br
00 Moreover, I have turned to referring to them as “externs” for short. While it seems to be a rather unusual meaning or context for this word, would you consider such a usage outright incorrect or inappropriate? 02 br
