The role of accentedness in acceptability judgements in L3 Norwegian: an across-domain investigation Foreign-accented speech has been explored from various perspectives, yet the current study is one of the first to investigate the role of accentedness in relation to acceptability judgements in mul...

When multilinguals hear speech in a certain accent, does that activate syntax from the associated language? We explore this in our most recent paper, the role of accentedness in acceptability judgements in L3 Norwegian: an across-domain investigation - check it out here: doi.org/10.1080/1479...

I have just seen this trailer for a Mesopotamia-inspired video game by @lunargamesuruk.bsky.social and WOW!

Of course, I'm obsessed with the imagery — lamassu, lions, Pazuzu, Standard of Ur, and all the cuneiform. But the storytelling too…I’m invested y’all youtu.be/NdRskslO-po?...

Women are credited less in science than men - Nature The difference between the number of men and women listed as authors on scientific papers and inventors on patents is at least partly attributable to unacknowledged contributions by women scientists.

On #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience let me remind you that we are NOWHERE NEAR parity. A few examples.

The SMRT is the public transport service here in Singapore. But it feels a bit weird seeing it when you speak Czech, because in Czech “smrt” means death!

Snaking along: Singapore scales up for Chinese New Year Scaly and sinister? Not these elegant, cute and cuddly ‘serpents’ slithering around the country as Singapore welcomes the Year of the Snake. The Straits Times picture desk checks them out.

Ah, maybe it resembles different characters from different sides! I got the info abt the character here: www.straitstimes.com/multimedia/g...

An amazing piece of art in the #linguisticlandscape of Singapore - two snakes in the shape of 福, signifying fortune, themselves made up of Chinese couplets made of individually cut Chinese characters 🐍✨ #lingsky

me Chloe, whereas international students are more likely to use Dr Chloe or Dr Castle.

Especially for first years - as I get some calling me “Miss” (e.g. hey Miss, what’s the answer to this qu), and some may be unsure - so it is sort of our unofficial role as individual lecturers to guide them in this (as I understand it). And then I’ve also noticed that Aussie students tend to call

TBH I haven’t really noticed this kind of overt linguistic guidance from the Uni (I went there too) — most lecturers introduce themselves and instruct students on how to refer to them. And most lecturers tell students to use their first name here (I say either Chloe or Dr Castle works fine) -
