Please participate in this study evaluating the acceptability of English sentences! Completely anonymous and takes just 15-20 minutes.

@dingemansemark I had a discussion with Corrine Occhino and Vadim Kimmelman recently about how to discuss signs with (presumably) accidental similar form and meaning between two unrelated signed languages. We were wondering if there is any term you are aware of for when ideophones are similar in form and meaning across to spoken languages? #ideophones #linguistics

Shout-out to all the people who maintain the infrastructure that lets me type a DOI into Zotero and have it pull in the metadata and sometimes even a PDF. This is magic, and I am so grateful to you all

@TimoRoettger how do you feel about presenting model estimates instead of raw data (as a figure in an article) if those estimates are Bayesian instead of Frequentist?
