One chapter deserves special mention: it's based on the fantastic course work of my students in a class on gender linguistic methods @hhu.de.

In "Form identity & gendered associations", we explore how similar forms influence gender associations across L1/L2.

Huge thanks to my brilliant co-authors!

🎀 Just in case you blinked during the epic Polish song at the #ESC grand finale… did you catch our sneaky LILG ad cameo? πŸ‘€

Hope it made you smile as much as the performance did! 🎢

A photo of three people: On the left a dragqueen with orange hair in a black dress, in the middle a person with sunglasses, brown hair and a white t-shirt, on the right a person with short brown hair, glasses, and a white shirt with circles on it. They carry a rainbow flag. In the background more people are somewhat visible, they seem to be dancing. On the wall in the background, there is a progressive pride flag.

Not saying that @hhu.de is the perfect place for a linguistics meets gender meets queerness conference... But have you seen what their English #Linguistics lecturer Christian Uffmann aka Phonobro just dropped?
