Very cool!

New favourite ambiguity example just dropped @jennirodd.bsky.social

You are right: journals don't pay authors, and sometimes authors even have to pay to publish (it's a silly system!). Any study author would most likely be flattered if you emailed them saying you're interested in their work and probably also more than happy to send you a copy. Definitely ask 🙂

Isn't that essentially what French does in the regular "qu'est-ce que c'est?" ?

I'm a linguist. Can I just say: prescriptivism is yuck.

Bei uns auch so! Neuer Bau eines Kindergartens 2023, aber keiner hat dran gedacht, dass man da vielleicht eine Klimaanlage mit einbaut?! Tja, und jetzt wird erwartet, dass man die Kinder früher abholt weil es ja im Kiga zu heiß sei....

when the teams are "imperfect woman who demanded basic safety standards for herself and the rest of the crew and cast" vs "sexual harassers, the system that protects them, and the entire right-wing media ecosystem" I hope we're all clear which side we need to be on

Paging @jennirodd.bsky.social in case you need a new example for a lecture
