Not-so-humble brag, but at the beginning of the week I had two empty Word documents. Now, 10,000 words later, I have two almost-complete (shorter) manuscripts.
This animated map I made shows change in the rate a which people were using the word 'windy' on Twitter over the course of about one year (2013-14)
My hot take is that lmer and glmer aren't "limmer" "glimmer" but rather "Elmer" and "gelmer" [dʒɛlmɚ].

I actually killed that course and replaced it with "Applied Phonetics." So, just when "PhonPhon" was starting to stick around here, it's not a thing anymore.
At UGA, we regularly referred to "Phonetics and Phonology" as "PhonPhon" ['fɑnfɑn]. I've been saying "PhonPhon" for two years now at BYU and I still get confused look from my colleagues. Apparently it's not a thing and I'm having one heck of a time making it a thing.
Be still my beating heart. (Graham Canyon is hands down the best flavor ice cream at BYU’s creamery. Adding chocolate it, well, I can’t imagine anything better.)
There’s a lot going on in language ideology today at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint’s semi-annual conference. We just got a new church leader from England and lots of people are commenting, including the following speaker who said he wanted to borrow his accent.
Okay, Mormons, I hear a Relief Society voice in Britt’s original, but Influencer Voice in Johansson’s parody. They’re similar, but I swear they’re wildly different for me.
I call this Relief Society voice because it’s used, in high demand religions to signal a woman is in power. That power can never be assertive, it needs to be subtle, breathy & “nurturing”. It is also used as a cover to say terrible things bc it was said in such a “caring” way.
For a few years, a colleague and I have been studying "Relief Society Voice", and it is WILD to hear it being used by a non-Mormon. Now I have to rethink everything I thought I knew about its indexicality.
{praatpicture} is now on CRAN! 🥳🎉 While you're sitting around waiting for the decisions from Speech Prosody to roll in, why not install.packages("praatpicture") and do some plotting? You won't regret it!
you can always tell when a Mormon or exmo didn’t start swearing until adulthood. something off about the syntax like a non native speaker of English. uncanny valley swearing.
More Missourians (95.3%) identify as Midwestern than Wisconsinites (93.6%). They've got zip code breakdown. Surely there's some interesting linguistic study that looks at Midwest identity and language variation or something?
