It is the BEST THING EVER to see someone investigate a research question you've always had, but do it better than you could've ever done.

Check out Melanie Weireich and Adrian Simpson's #ICPhS2023 paper, "Changes in parents' phonetic parameters during the first year of a child's life: A comparative study of German and Swedish"

Fascinating correlations, and lack thereof, between femininity self-rating of fathers and mothers, and their f0 production over time.

I’m used to GOOSE so fronted it gets parsed as FLEECE, but this morning a young woman was ordering coffee with “oat” milk and the GOAT was so fronted, even *in context* I had to backtrack to unparse it as “eight”

Réflexions en cours menées depuis un moment avec mon collègue @MedericGC
''Et si on éliminait les accents... de nos façons de penser?''

(petit résumé)
Retours bienvenus, c'est un chantier important pour nous.

Revoir de fond en comble la notion d'accent, qui ne marche pas comme concept opérationnel... ⬇️⬇️⬇️

#introduction

I'm a lecturer at Lancaster University, UK, in the Linguistics Department. I work on the phonetics and sociolinguistics of Scottish Gaelic, and sociophonetics in the north of England.

Here for linguistics chat but also outdoor stuff, running, cats. My cat is called Penny! She is 16 and enjoys snoozing.

Hi folks! I'm a phonetician at UCL who mainly works in #sociophonetics, forensic speech science and #bilingualism. I mostly split my time doing crosswords, reading fiction, and sat on the train doing the above.

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.

Hi #ScienceMastodon, glad to discover all of you in a quiet safe place (hope so)

I'm a #linguist (French #sociophonetics) working for Sorbonne Nouvelle university in Paris.

I'm interested in high education, #DigitalHumanities, simple humanities 😉 , language and #linguistics, #GenderStudies, science popularization, citizen science...

I will almost post in French here, sometimes in English, but I can read your posts in #Portuguese, Italian, #Romanian, Spanish and German
