✨New preprint out!
With Faruk Akkus and @linguistbrian.bsky.social
We show robust evidence for the rapid use of hierarchical relations in memory retrieval.
👉3 VW studies on the Turkish reciprocal
👉More looks to c-commanding subjects & indirect objects than to distractors

We found that focus in TID is not only realized as duration increase in focused signs, but also as duration decrease in the extended domain. Sign languages use different domains (manual and nonmanual) to mark focus yielding crosslinguistic patterns.

Duration as a prosodic cue in TİD: Focus realization in the extended domain
Prosodic prominence of focused units reflected through a variety of cues, is well documented in all modalities. Yet, the effect of focus in the extended domain is understudied in sign languages. This ...

It looks like we still got work to do for equity!
Ok!! After reviewing many applications for ECR large scale projects and seeing recommendation letters I notice that letters for women focus more on personality traits that intellectual merit and achievements than for men 😩😩 letter writers and reviewers take note!!!
