Does anyone have a good way to add meaningful alt text for syntactic trees, phylogenetic trees, and typological maps (like those on WALS)? 🐦🐦

The citizen app in Phoenix-Tempe keeps producing the gold standard of syntactic ambiguity: from “police in pursuit of pickup truck with three wheels” to “report of man with gun inside bag making threats”. I’m sad I’m not teaching syntax this year.

With more than a week to spare, I finished stats and plots for a talk in the trans alpine typology thing next week. It’s the first Tibeto-Burman languages talk I’m on.The main author is giving the talk, which explains the week to spare part…

Any one knows of and wants to recommend good LATEX 94 Overleaf intros / tutorials specifically for linguists? I learned by trial and too many errors, but it doesn’t have to be that way

It’s a cool museum, on a cool campus, where a cool institute will be held. It is also in a cool city in a beautiful, often cool, area of the world. You should also take my and Jordan’s class, and probably some others while you’re at it.

I am biased about this paper. It was fun to work on and write, at least for me (not sure about Becky).

While I think that obsessing over minor patterns in any language is good and worthy (plus, it’s one of my favorite things to do), this is a smart advice for everyone to follow, even if we think we understand cross-linguistic diversity

One thing that has stuck with me from my reading this fall is a point that Jeff Mielke makes in his 2008 book: "linguists often confuse their shared assumptions with linguistic universals." Since I care about features, I thought I should read Jeff's book in more detail. A thread. 1/n #linguistics

Can’t say how many times I’ve read Labov and Waletzky 1967, but I’ll read it again tomorrow. What a blessing.

I learned a lot by going to the university’s subreddit. I encourage everyone to periodically check what’s up there. It’s also really funny at times, which is nice.

On the other hand, I felt so bad about this that I accepted most review requests. Mostly fun papers.

Shahorrible @shahorrible.bsky.social · 09/09/2024

My very popular opinion: large conferences should enable remote access to talks and have them recorded. It’s cool that linguists upload and share detailed handouts and presentations, but c’mon, we can do better.

This one's for the linguists AND non-linguists: what would you want to learn from a short fact sheet about endangered languages? What are some key pieces of information that would be useful in learning, teaching, or advocacy? 🐦🐦

Let me just say that deaf scholars would welcome the opportunity to present their research, not to educate hearing scholars about how to make the field more inclusive. I don’t know how to say this more plainly.
