“R is an incredibly weird letter with so many different #sounds and functions." So here's an interesting question to ponder with #sociolinguist Dr. Erica Brozovsky: Is R a vowel?

New profile, new #introduction

I'm Ártemis, aka #queerterpreter. This is my academic/languagery account, or that's what I'm going for. I'm a #sociolinguist and a PhD Candidate researching non-binary Spanish. I'm also an ES<>EN #translator and #interpreter. My diss leans heavily on #corpus linguistics, specifically corpora scraped from the birdsite. The data is safe but I'm in mourning.

My more personal acct is at @queerterpreter@queer.party, feel free to follow both or just one (or none) :Schwerified:

Refloating my #introduction post because new influx of people.

I'm Ártemis (#queerterpreter), a non-binary #linguist and #translator (of Spanish and English) who's working on their #Linguistics #PhD... on non-binary Spanish. I’m also big into #sewing (clothes) and recently got into #rollerderby. Esp. interested in networking with other #sociolinguist, particularly those working on/with/from oppressed populations!

Here's a soft #introduction before my migration from joeystan@mstdn.social is complete.

Hi, I'm Joey. I'm a #linguist, more specifically a #sociolinguist and #phonetician, at #BYU. I do research on American English accents and dialects, with most of my recent focus being on #UtahEnglish.

I also think about methods and quantitative stuff a lot within the area of #sociophonetics. I like #rstats and #dataviz.

Ma #thèse a été envoyée aux rapporteurs le 15 octobre dernier. Si tout se passe bien, ma #soutenance aura lieu début décembre.
Est-ce que vous auriez des conseils pour la préparer au mieux ? Je suis un peu angoissée à l’idée de présenter mon parcours et mes travaux en seulement vingt petites minutes 🥺 Quel genre de diaporama ferait bonne impression ? Quel squelette de discours permettrait d’évoquer les aspects importants du parcours ?

Helloooo, new followers! Happy to meet you here! 😍 I’m a #Sociolinguist, which means I specialize on phenomena that consider #Language as a #Social and #Political phenomenon.

An important part of my research has to do with #LanguageIdeologies, i.e. not how we speak, but how we *think* we (and others) speak, and how we judge ourselves and others based on that.

I have notably worked on the ways of speaking of German-Turkish young women in #Berlin and how they are exposed to #LinguisticRacism.
