I have been remiss in posting here that the #Tunica Language Textbook is published and available for purchase![1] Here’s the press release.[2]

If this sort of book is up your alley, have a look at it (you can preview it on Google Books)[3] and let me know what you think. Advice is crucial, as we’re planning a second textbook.

Today is the first day of #Tunica language & culture summer camp, the first in-person camp since 2019. It’s been a while since I taught the language, having spent the last couple of years immersed in analysis of the documentation. I’m looking forward to getting back to engaging with the language in the present!

Also looking forward to seeing how much the kids I remember have grown and inevitably feeling old as a result. 👴

My code was deployed on #Wikipedia! You can now type #Cherokee using Wikipedia's input tools. This is a transliteration style keyboard, so typing "tsalagi" turns into "ᏣᎳᎩ" which can be easier to use because it doesn't require memorizing a new keyboard layout. #indigenous #LanguageRevitalization #linguistics

An honour to have Rivke Margolis and Chaye Nove as our two keynote speakers this year. Don't miss this session! Register: http://bit.ly/registerfarbindungen23

We're excited to share a new video tutorial on using Canva for #languagerevitalization, by 2022 ELP intern Tiara Opissinow! In this video, Tiara walks us through the basic steps of making a "word of the day" post: https://youtu.be/eLWMOpmp3Wk

When harmful myths about #Indigenous and #EndangeredLanguages come up in the media or politics, how can we respond?

In a new blog post, ELP #LanguageRevitalization Mentor Alexandra Philbin unpacks anti-#Irish language rhetoric in the media: http://endangeredlanguages.com/blog

The world of #Algonquian languages lost a great speaker of #Potawatomi last week. It’s been days and I can’t properly articulate my emotions. He was so patient and kind and hilarious and intelligent. A reminder that when I say I work with #language, what I mean is that I work with people. #LanguageReclamation #LanguageRevitalization #LanguageDocumentation #linguistics

I guess it’s time for an #introduction!

I’m a PhD candidate at Tulane University, focusing on #LanguageRevitalization, #LanguageChange, #LanguageDocumentation, and #SecondLanguage teaching. I work with the Tunica Language Working Group on Tunica, an #IndigenousLanguage in Louisiana.

I’m also interested in #CorpusLinguistics, language and the law, #DoubleModals, and #Humor.

Outside of linguistics, I’m relearning the piano, keeping my two cats happy, and honing my trivial skills.

I want to know what's up in #NLP #MachineLearning #AI #AIEthics #ComputationalLinguistics #Technology. I want to improve my #coding #containerization #appDevelopment. I am interested in #Language #LanguageRevitalization #LanguageEndangerment #IndigenousPeople #DecadeOfIndigenousLanguages #LanguageDocumentation #HistoryOfScience #PhilosophyOfScience #Phonetics #Phonology #Morphology #Syntax #Semantics #Pragmatics

Wow sorry if you read all that. 😿
