Whose standard even 😜

Our magnificent bastard tongue by John McWhorter

Ah yes, quizzes and drills. It's almost like they operate with no knowledge of how languages are learned and best taught...

UG, as originally theorized, does not exist. At some point, it will have been altered so much that it looks just like the Cognitive Science explanations for language, and the Chomskians will say, "See, we WERE right all along!"

I really like Cognitive Psychology and its Implications by John Anderson

How are my fellow academics with kids holding up? Although I just got tenure last year, I'm feeling so exhausted managing my classes, service, and research with 3 young kids at home. This job gives me the flexibility to be there for them, but trying to be good at everything is frying my brain.

It's not the borrowing of the word from another language that blocks the ge- prefix in dekorieren, but rather that no verbs in German that end in -ieren get the ge- (kontollieren - kontrolliert). Many borrowed verbs do get that morphology (gegooglt, geliked, etc...)

fragwürdig haha

You can now find three of the authors on bluesky!

Hi, would love to be added.

I'd love to be added. I'll be helping to facilitate the ACTFL DEI listening session on Saturday and then presenting some work on innovative pedagogy in study abroad.
