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...
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...

On #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience let me remind you that we are NOWHERE NEAR parity. A few examples.
1. Women are credited less in science than men.

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.

Spotted at the Chinatown Heritage Centre today - the phrasing “growing up years” rather than “childhood” did not fit in with my own dialectal expectations (Sth Aust English) - I am wondering whether this is more common to use in Sing English, cross-linguistic influence from Chinese (or both) (1/2)
