The past two days I’ve been learning how to use Live2D In which I’ve discovered that hair has gravity and faces are attached to our necks (Model parts were from a textbook)

Anyone else prefer the sound of "acearo" to "aroace"? I know that the more common one is aroace for reasons potentially having to do with its etymology, but I feel like I'd come to the former if I were given the two words without context and told to put them together

If you'd like to take a student's survey on attitudes to accents, one of ours has one right here: universityofkent.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... You'll need to have spent most of your childhood in the UK to be eligible. #linguistics

What can you tell about someone from their voice?

Complete this brief survey to help me collect data for my dissertation project!

in other news I assumed I had to do the entire lab section of my textbook but it turns out I only had to do sections of it ...which I learned after having spent like 12+ hours on the first 2 labs

Update: It's readable, but I think I ought to invest more in the math skill tree Going to do this course first

I think Chants of Sennaar (from the games section) is very fun! Played it a while ago and got up to the Laboratories before getting stuck. The language of the Gardens sort of reminds me of Japanese I’ve heard Heaven’s Vault is similar but I haven’t played it yet

It was fun! I want to see if I can convince my uninterested-in-linguistics friends to take it They have strong opinions on the aesthetics of languages’ phonology for some reason

I’m not quite sure what they mean (know not much about music), but that reminded me of the musical diagrams in 邦楽家のための音楽理論 #musicsky (is that a thing?) #japanese

About my bsky-picture: Simon Heinrich Adolf Herling (1780-1849) laid the groundwork for *Periodenbilder* in 1823. In a textbook from 1828 he used a music-score for the analysis of clausal subordination. This idea recurs throughout the 19thC in Germany. #linguistics cysouw.github.io/graphicalgra...

Herling (1828) uses a musical notation for the analysis of complex sentences
