Howard Lambert Chace (1897–1982) was an American linguist and educator. He served as a professor of Romance languages at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, where his academic background in language laid the groundwork for his unique literary pursuits.
Chace is best known for his creative writing that employed homophonic transformation. Through this technique, he authored poems and stories that reconstructed narratives using words that sounded similar to the intended words but carried entirely different meanings, showcasing his playful approach to English linguistics.
