Oproep tot bijdragen workshop a Germanic Sandwich 10 A Germanic Sandwich is een reeks workshops waarin het Nederlands wordt vergeleken met zijn naaste Germaanse buren, het Engels en het Duits.

We verwelkomen (synchrone en/of diachrone) studies naar (on)gelijkenissen tussen het Nederlands, Duits en Engels, evenals andere (West-)Germaanse talen zoals het Afrikaans en Fries.

Review of Nagle (2025): A Guide to Quantitative Research Methods in Second Language Pronunciation | John Benjamins Welcome to e-content platform of John Benjamins Publishing Company. Here you can find all of our electronic books and journals, for purchase and download or subscriber access.

I had the pleasure of reviewing Charlie Nagle's recent book on quantitative methods for L2 pronunciation research - excellent, comprehensive resource for people aiming to do research (or do better research) on various facets of L2 pronunciation.

I might be able to hire a postdoc for this fall in computational linguistics at UT Austin. Topics in the general LLM + cognitive space (particularly reasoning, chain of thought, LLMs + code) and LLM + linguistic space. If this could be of interest, feel free to get in touch!
