Ann Mumford#LSA2023 - call for papers: CRN 38, International Socio-Legal Feminisms, aims to provide a platform for discussion of research addressing feminist perspectives on law. For over a decade, CRN 38 has supported research from a variety of legal jurisdictions. All approaches to socio-legal methodologies are welcome. Informal approaches from scholars to the CRN organisers are welcome. contacts: Kathleen Lahey (QU Kingston) and me
Kirby ConrodOops okay I wrote two blog posts. Uh first here's my quick recap of the research I presented at #lsa2023: https://medium.com/p/dff141951ac2
Felicia Bisnath πΉπΉI was really happy to see work from the Caribbean and Creoles, particularly Prof. Devonish's (University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica), shouted out at the #LSA2023 as models of bilingual language education. It doesn't happen enough.
I presented at the #LSA2023 on mouthing in signed languages, framing it as forms of #multimodal language contact. Slides can be found here:

Rikker DockumWeeeelp, looks like the ADS registration option was not intended to give anyone virtual access to #LSA2023 plenaries or WOTY after all. So now they want those of us who used it to pay $425 retroactively for the access they accidentally gave us. Stay classy, LSA.
Gareth RobertsMarantz talking about pseudo-morphology of words like 'brother' and 'vulnerable', I'm reminded of this line from the underappreciated 1991 classic Oscar #LSA2023
I like Alec Marantz's observation in this #LSA2023 plenary - when we encounter an unfamiliar face we don't call it a non-face, so people encountering new words shouldn't call them non-words
