I 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.

Because connections to stuff I've written about: Laura Downing at #HDLS15 mentions biases in documentation e.g. salience of linguistic forms to outsider fieldworkers can determine what gets documented and documenting contrastive forms is less controversial than non-contrastive ones.
Also her work on laryngeal stop inventories in #African #languages relied on documentation of non-contrastive forms.

My paper on mouthings in 37 #signlanguages will be published in the Journal of #Language Contact
This paper describes 4 mouthing constructions in 37 sign languages and the ideologies behind their documentation. It argues that language contact phenomena like mouthing are marginalised in documentation. It also shows that the deaf-rural divide in sign language #typology likely tracks documentation differences more than structural differences.
